The Bling Ring Reviews

Movie Reviews

• this is an intriguingly intuitive and atmospheric movie

  by Peter Bradshaw [The Guardian ]

• this is a too-cool-for-school portrait of spoiled kids achieving dubious but welcome fame for robbing the homes of young Hollywood celebrities

  by Todd McCarthy [Hollywood Reporter ]

• the material is sensational, the film is on the blah side

  by Richard Corliss [TIME Magazine ]

• the film is like a more expertly shot episode of a reality show, with the final product as disposable as last year's swag

  by Claudia Puig [USA Today ]

• one of the complexities of watching "The Bling Ring" is figuring out which subset of humanity to dislike the most. All in this sardonic tragedy are distinctly sketched in by the filmmaker

  by Betsy Sharkey [Los Angeles Times ]

• lively and fascinating pic

  by Scott Foundas [Variety ]

• "The Bling Ring" occupies a vertiginous middle ground between banality and transcendence, and its refusal to commit to one or the other is both a mark of integrity and a source of frustration
