De Midnight Madness categorie op het Internationaal Toronto Film Festival bestaat ui middernacht screenings van de beste actie, horror, shock en fantasyfilms. 'Seven Psychopaths' werd door de bezoekers verkozen tot beste film in de competitie. En ook de pers is loven over de film, het script en de prestatie van de topcast. "At a time when the gross out gag is king, McDonagh unloads the cleverest comedy script of the year and puts wordplay into the spotlight" Upcoming-movies.com "A funny, dirty and very, very violent comedy that tilts at serious themes (as did 'In Bruges', but in a different way) and does so with a messy, irreverent, gung-ho energy." Empire Magazine "It's less a love letter to the writing process than a satire of those obsessed with it. Even if McDonagh doesn't mean to imply that writing is a psychopathic behavior, the proof is in the gory pudding." Indiewire "There are scenes of complete brilliance, Walken is better than he's been in years, cute plot loops and grace notes." Guardian
