Leonard Klady · Variety 100.00/100.00

The film pulls no punches, takes no prisoners and flies in the face of feel-good pictures.

冰红深蓝 5.00/5.00

1.至丧绝望之作,沉沦到底的酒鬼与颓废麻木的妓女间的爱情,相互吸引,相互尊重,及至爱与死的交融合一。2.凯奇的影帝实至名归,伊丽莎白·苏的表演也毫不逊色。3.原作者卖出电影改编权后不久即自杀身亡,在影史上,也很难找出如此决绝笃定的自杀者,自弃到极致,便成就了优雅从容的姿态,矢志不渝地堕落自毁,选择如此漫长的死亡之途,岂不也是一种勇毅?4.几处高速交叉剪辑颇有尼古拉斯·罗伊格风范,如(凯奇POV中的)脱衣舞女与他将整瓶酒一饮而尽的迅疾轮剪,最终消音,犹如感官的瘫痪,再匹配切至大张嘴开车之镜。5.男主前史与酗酒动机几乎悉数留白,非常大胆的处理,虐待狂皮条客放走女主,迎接在画外被杀的归宿,也很独特。6.间或插入女主的访谈特写,自陈心迹,却未见访谈者身影,够间离。7.无尽霓虹,超市起舞,泳池接吻。(9.0/10)

Owen Gleiberman · Entertainment Weekly 91.00/100.00

Dark and giddy at the same time, Leaving Las Vegas takes us into dreamy, intoxicated places that no movie about an alcoholic has gone before.
