Movie Reviews

  • you come out of it not caring about any of the characters or their cause regardless of how substantial it might be
    Review rate : C- by Cole Smithey [ColeSmithey.com ]
  • visually competent but verbally clogged
    by Jeannette Catsoulis [New York Times ]
  • there's some overly blunt dialogue and dead-end subplots that would have been pruned by more experienced filmmakers
    2.5 of 4 by Lou Lumenick [New York Post ]
  • the added liability of their protagonist's crippling addiction can at times make "Puncture" more downer than dander-raiser
    by Robert Abele [Los Angeles Times ]
  • tells a suspenseful story responsibly, creating food for thought and leaving the audience both enlightened and entertained
    2 of 4 by Rex Reed [New York Observer ]
  • shakes and hangdog face fail to convey anything of the addictive personality but succeed in setting him up as a martyr in Puncture's crude muckraking schemata
    by Nick Pinkerton [Village Voice ]
  • or at least you see his point of view, going up against this drug-addled do-gooder who won't even settle the case when it probably is in his client's best interest
    by Kirk Honeycutt [Hollywood Reporter ]
  • it's a likable oddity: a rambling, low-budget Erin Brockovich with a cokehead hero
    Review rate : B by Owen Gleiberman [Entertainment Weekly ]
  • doesn't have a strong screen presence, and the direction is shaky
    3 of 5 by Elizabeth Weitzman [New York Daily News ]
  • buff body, very much on display, and drug-induced megalomania fail to elicit much sympathy
    by Ronnie Scheib [Variety ]
