Slant Magazine
One wishes the director had as burning of an interest in significance as he does trickery and quippery. - 50
The Hollywood Reporter
Martin's script holds some hard-boiled appeal, but his direction (some nice technical flourishes aside) doesn't back it up. - 50
Variety
Martin’s screenplay is so tricky in the plot-twist and scrambled-chronology departments, there’s little attention left to limn the character depths that might make us more invested in sussing out so many double- and triple-crosses. - 38
Movie Nation
Jake’s narration, about how you can either “finesse” your way out of a jam, or “Bogart your way through it,” is drab. As are the performances. Especially the leads. - 20
Los Angeles Times
Rather than sticking with that entirely workable setup, writer-director Martin keeps distractedly flip-flopping back and forth in time leading up to the big heist, preventing the plotting from building any tangible tension.
