A diverting Western that’s almost worth seeing for the unsaddled performances that director Vincent D’Onofrio gets from his cast, “The Kid” only makes a few small adjustments to the dustiest of American genres, but these errant wrinkles — a far cry from any serious…
davidehrlichFeb 26, 2022at one point in the middle of the movie Ethan Hawke was yelling so annoyingly loud that my girlfriend woke up and started a fight with me. thank you, Ethan. (also, may someone please give Dane DeHaan a decent role in a decent movie for once?)
shookoneMar 16, 2019I came to see the divine Mr. Hawke, and I didn’t get much more than that. He did a good job of waking me back up whenever he showed up in a scene.

Ethan Hawke yelling never did sound so damn good. A bit of a let down for me. I mean, I should have known, Chris Pratt as a badly acted villain with a fake beard, a monologue apocalypse, too many damn side characters, Billy the Kid’s unneeded girlfriend for whatever…
Cusack-edevApr 7, 2025I used to read about Billy The Kid when I was in elementary school and I very much enjoyed Dane DeHaan's portrayal of him here. In other news, Ethan Hawke as a cowboy will forever be a homo-erotic thirst trap for me after watching Strange Way of Life. I can't help it if…
꧁Aelswyth꧂Nov 15, 2022Vincent D'Onofrio's The Kid is another retelling of Billy "The Kid" Bonney and the man responsible for killing him, Sheriff Pat Garrett. But while they're heavily advertised, the narrative crux lies on the shoulders of a young boy, Rio, played by Jake Schur as he's tempted…

VCVictor CruzSurprisingly good movie. Not what you would normally expect from a Billy The Kid story but I liked the angle they took. A slightly different look to the story.

Hawke takes a fairly one-dimensional character and gives it an intelligent and shaded performance.

Pratt delightfully plays against type here as a fierce bully, and Hawke looks as though he were born to wear spurs and a badge.

There’s gunplay aplenty here, but nothing about “The Kid” sets it apart from the many Billy the Kid movies that have preceded it.
