San Francisco Examiner
Shelton has a talent for using the specific to illustrate the universal. Avowed baseball haters loved "Bull Durham." And if watching golf sounds like an excellent insomnia cure, you will probably still enjoy Tin Cup. - 80
Time
Rene Russo is both knowing and vulnerable, proving beyond a doubt that she is modern Hollywood's one true heiress to the screwball tradition. [19 August 1996, p.68] - 80
The New York Times
Bright, stylish, ridiculously alluring. - 75
Chicago Sun-Times
Well written. The dialogue is smart and fresh. - 75
ReelViews
This movie ranks as better-than-par entertainment. - 75
San Francisco Chronicle
Accomplishes the impossible, maybe the unimaginable -- it makes golf entertaining. - 60
Newsweek
The good news about the amiable but only partly satisfying Tin Cup is that it frees Kevin Costner from playing a monument and restores to us the loose, sparkling comic actor he used to be. [19 August 1996, p.66] - 50
Los Angeles Times
Squanders an appealing performance from Costner.
