What Are the Critics Saying About Rain Dogs?

Rain Dogs has an official critics rating of 100% and an average audience score of 74% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Craig Mathieson from The Age (Australia) writes, “Rain Dogs has a naturalism that is eye-popping, bittersweet and sometimes tragic. It reaches the depths of an unconventional friendship with defiant humour and finds the peaks equally have sombre drawbacks. This show floored me.”

The Boston Globe’s Matthew Gilbert says, “The half-hour show is rewarding, rich in its characterizations and commanding in its self-awareness, but the journey can be harsh, especially as your hopes for the characters are so often dashed.”
