- 60Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenLos Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenAlthough a third act reveal doesn’t quite pack the intended punch, Bullitt County nevertheless propels its characters in some unanticipated, intriguing directions.
- 60The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckWhile it offers more style than substance, Bullitt County delivers an engrossing tale with enough twists to satisfy thrill-loving audiences. If anything, it offers too many twists, proving unable to live up to its considerable narrative ambitions.
- 58The Film StageJared MobarakThe Film StageJared MobarakBullitt County almost becomes two separate entities in the process, one half comedic romp and the other a bloody depiction of human nature left festering. The second part is vastly more interesting and yet it’s not given enough room to breath considering we already spent forty-five minutes languishing in false exposition.
- 40Film ThreatHunter LanierFilm ThreatHunter LanierEvery now and then, a line or a subtle moment in someone’s performance has some truth in it, but little is sustained in Bullitt County.
- 30Film Journal InternationalAndré HerefordFilm Journal InternationalAndré HerefordTrading “Dueling Banjos” and gut-wrenching tension for haphazard plotting and an impromptu group singalong of an original folk tune, the results are disappointing on a number of levels.
