Recommandations
- 90
The New York Times
A bit of the old West with a good bit of the old Dietrich in it; a tightly written, capitally directed show, with perfectly grand supporting performances. - 90
Time Out
Flawless performances, pacy direction and a snappy script place it head and shoulders above virtually any other spoof oater. - 88
Slant Magazine
Above all, Destry Rides Again is fun, with a variety of stars and character actors utilizing their charisma with an expert sense of ease and offhandedness. - 80
Variety
Destry Rides Again is anything but a super-western. It's just plain, good entertainment [from an original story by Felix Jackson suggested by Max Brand's novel], primed with action and laughs and human sentiment. - 80
Empire
Typical James Stewart defeating bullies with integrity stuff. - 80
TV Guide Magazine
Under the sure directorial hand of genre veteran Marshall, Destry Rides Again is a well-paced western that seamlessly combines humor, romance, suspense and action. - 80
Los Angeles Times
Directed by George Marshall, Destry revived Dietrich's waning screen career, and her barroom brawl with Una Merkel is a classic. [25 Aug 1996, p.74] - 80
The New Yorker
James Stewart is charming and even a little bit sexy as the mild-mannered Destry.
