- 38Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperChicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperGun Shy is a loud bang signifying nothing, a tired and second-rate actioner — and an embarrassing resume entry for the likes of Antonio Banderas (“Desperado,” “Once Upon a Time in Mexico”) and Olga Kurylenko (“Oblivion,” “Quantum of Solace”).

- 25RogerEbert.comPeter SobczynskiRogerEbert.comPeter SobczynskiGun Shy is an action-comedy starring Antonio Banderas that is lacking only action, comedy and a performance by Antonio Banderas that is anything other than a complete embarrassment.
- 10The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeA giant thud of a film that makes one doubt the fact that West ever directed a proper Hollywood movie.
