Critic Reviews for The Criminal

All Critics (10) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (4) | DVD (6)

Simpson has created an intelligent, well-acted, twisty, spellbinding, dark and moody film that questions if what you are seeing is believable.

Like a bemused John Cusack stumbled into a very loud Steven Seagal shoot-'em-up.

I thought the movie was going to follow through, but it settles into a conventional man-on-the-run formula.
