Almost every possible mob film has been made, but this one still feels inventive and engaging.

I think it's just about a great movie, and certainly one of director John Huston's best.

Combustible Celluloid
John Huston's Prizzi's Honor packs love, sex, and murder -- and dark comedy -- into a labyrinthine tale.

Variety
Rating: 7/10 --
Yes, it went a little too long, felt a little forced at times, began with one of the most unnecessary lengthy wedding scenes of all-time and ended on a note that simply didn't satisfy, but overall, I enjoyed it and would recommend it.

JoBlo's Movie Emporium
As usual, Turner works hard and manages to lend some conviction to a shoddily written part, but she can't connect with Nicholson, whose obscure hamminess leaves him isolated on some other planet.

Chicago Reader
Rating: 3/5 --
Widely considered a black comedy classic, Prizzi's Honor is dated today and, tragically, finally revealed as a middling work that wanders aimlessly and ends abruptly.

Huston steers clear of slapstick cliché and keeps the comedy coming, right to its violently funny ending.

Product Description:
Black comedy about a thick hitman who falls for a woman who turns out to be in the same business. The romance hits a snag when "The Boss" hires each to rub out the other.
