Washington Post -
The movie is pure hound, but you'll want to catch Short's every pixilated move. He almost made me wish that the picture would never end.

Los Angeles Times -
This is Short's picture, and though he can do no wrong in it, he is not in a position to carry the whole thing. His fans will dutifully trek to it, laughing at his skill and wondering when Hollywood will finally do him justice. It's a hell of a good question.

The New York Times -
Martin Short can do anything, it seems, except find the right movies to star in.
|
|
Time Out -
A misfire.
|
|
Chicago Sun-Times -
Pure Luck is a bad movie, all right - with leaden timing, a disorganized screenplay, and stretches where nothing much of interest seems to be happening.
