Austin American-Statesman

Dudley Early

A movie far above the average, it just misses being a fine picture.

It's made with a great pulse, but lacks the height of Jacques Tourmeur's other unforgettable films. [Full Review in Spanish]

But perhaps the most persuasive thing about "Easy Living" is the forthright depiction of professional football as a stimulating, cash-on-the-line business, one Mr. Schnee seems to understand from locker room to goalpost.

Michael E. Grost

Sometimes interesting but sexist tale about football, with some good Tourneur touches.

Dennis Schwartz

This would-be intelligent soap opera tale about the early days of pro football never reaches a boil.
