Entertainment Reviews:
[A]n amiable comedic shaggy dog story in which inept law enforcement meets corrupt law enforcement.

... doesn't have the satirical dexterity to generate any substance beyond its slapstick shenanigans.

Cinemalogue
More of an absurdist comedy than an uproarious one, this mostly works because McDorman and Starr play things completely seriously.

Forbes
A pastiche of western tropes too tongue-in-cheek to sell its dramatic intentions, but just sincere enough to smother any intimations of parody, "The Escape of Prisoner 614" never commits to a consistent tone.

New York Times
Rating: 4/10 --
Flimsy, weakly-scripted, wannabe satirical Western that never takes advantage of its talented cast, particularly Ron Perlman and Sondra James.

SSG Syndicate
Despite amiable performances by a great cast, this bantering seriocomedy about two sort-of deputies tracking a prison escapee in the Catskill Mountains is a sub-Tarantino dud.

Rating: 1/4 --
Like "Tucker and Dale vs. Evil," without the evil, without charismatic stars, without a laugh in it.

Product Description:
In this action/comedy, two inept deputies (Martin Starr and Jake McDorman) are fired and try to get their jobs back by pursuing and apprehending an escaped prisoner convicted (George Sample III) of killing a police officer. However, the deputies quickly learn that all is not as it seems and the escapee may be innocent, forcing them to reinvestigate the case. Also starring Ron Perlman. Directed by Zach Golden.
