JoBlo's Movie Emporium ("JoBlo")
These guys were going for a B-movie feel, lots of blood, lots of guts, lots of tits and ass, and lots of fun, and for the most part, they achieved their goals.
FROM DUSK TILL DAWN has its problems, but it delivers in respect to most of the stuff ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at JoBlo's Movie Emporium ("JoBlo")
DVDActive (Chris Gould)
I haven’t seen any of FDTD's sequels, and judging by the things I’ve heard I’m not missing much. I guess the reason the sequels aren’t up to much is that there wasn’t a lot there to begin with. If it wasn’t for ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at DVDActive (Chris Gould)

Movie Hell (Michael J. Legeros)
Deliriously violent and gory as all get-out, Robert Rodriguez's Mexican-biker-vampire flick isn't for everyone. The body parts fly in the second-half of this Quentin Tarantino-scripted story about two bank-robbing brothers (played by Tarantino and TV ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at Movie Hell (Michael J. Legeros)
Q Network Film Desk (James Kendrick)
"From Dusk Till Dawn" is a movie screaming for a bad review. It has shallow characters, raunchy dialogue, and an overabundance of visually shocking gore and violence as its centerpiece. The problem is, in its own sick and twisted ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at Q Network Film Desk (James Kendrick)
ReelViews (James Berardinelli)
At present, there is a Tarantino backlash in progress, but it's unlikely that the growing public dislike of "Mr. Overexposure" is going to damage From Dusk Till Dawn's box-office prospects, since the target audience won't care about the ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at ReelViews (James Berardinelli)
Mr. Brown's Movies (Michael Dequina)
A fun, tongue-in-cheek gorefest that both spoofs and celebrates the glories of B-grade exploitation vehicles. ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at Mr. Brown's Movies (Michael Dequina)

"From Dusk till Dawn" is one of Robert Roderiguez better works. This horror/comedy, which has plenty of violence and gore, but is well-written and acted.
The film stars George Clooney, Harvey Keitel, Quentin Tarantino(who wrote the screenplay) and ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at The BigScreen Cinema Guide - Reader Reviews

If you have the faintest idea what this movie is all about, I'd appreciate a call. As best I can tell, the lowdown is this: guns, hostages, a Winnebago, Mexico, breasts, booze, vampires, and gore...lots and lots of gore.
"Not for all ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at filmcritic.com (Christopher Null)

ReelViews (James Berardinelli)
It's great fun, but certainly not great art. From Dusk Till Dawn, a special effects blood-and-gore extravaganza from director Robert Rodriguez, follows in the footsteps of such cult classics as Sam Raimi's Evil Dead series, thumbing its nose at convention ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

A vampire gore-fest, the plot may be insubstantial but who's counting when you're faced with a tidal wave of explosions, violence and humour. Squatting at the epicentre of a convulsion of crime, brothers Seth (George Clooney) and Richard Gecko (Quentin ...read the complete From Dusk Till Dawn movie review at Movie Reviews UK

Movie ram-blings (Ram Samudrala)
From Dusk Till Dawn stars Quentin Tarantino and George Clooney in a Robert Rodriguez gorefest. The plot is fairly simple: Clooney and Tarantino play two thieving and murdering brothers, Seth and Richard Gecko.

"From Dusk Till Dawn" is one of the most bizarre films I've ever seen, but it's also one of the most original films I've ever seen.
