Collinwood seems like a series of sketches, with caricatures instead of characters.

Reviews for Welcome to Collinwood
Top CriticThe picture runs a mere 84 minutes, but it's no glance. It's a head-turner -- thoughtfully written, beautifully read and, finally, deeply humanizing.

Top CriticThe actual heist is the high point, just as in the Italian film, and so raffish and disorganized was the gang that I can see how someone might enjoy this movie, coming to it for the first time.

Top CriticAn infectious caper flick.

Top CriticSelf-consciously quirky and straining for idiosyncrasy, Welcome to Collinwood is a passable ensemble comedy that never hits its stride.

Top CriticIt's supposed to be a humorous, all-too-human look at how hope can breed a certain kind of madness -- and strength -- but it never quite adds up.

Top CriticThis ensemble comedy has its inventively funny moments. But ultimately, it gets a little too cute for its own good.
10/17/02
Top CriticAs shameless as it is successful in stringing together gag after gag.

Top CriticSometimes this modest little number clicks, and sometimes it doesn't.

Top CriticIt plays like someone took a chomp out of the third act.
10/17/02
Top CriticYet another self-consciously overwritten story about a rag-tag bunch of would-be characters that team up for a can’t-miss heist -- only to have it all go wrong.
10/07/02
Top CriticThis first-time feature by writer/director brothers Anthony and Joe Russo, with its light plot, short run time and derivative script, feels like a tentative trial run in film, but the Russos are clearly ones to watch.
10/04/02
Top CriticCan't kick about the assembled talent and the Russos show genuine promise as comic filmmakers. Still, this thing feels flimsy and ephemeral.
10/04/02
Top CriticFilled with a sweet, loopy sensibility and some fresh comic turns, Welcome to Collinwood is a low-budget American film that falls into the good-but-slight category.
10/04/02
Top CriticThe doofus-on- the-loose banter of Welcome to Collinwood has a cocky, after-hours loopiness to it. And as with most late-night bull sessions, eventually the content isn't nearly as captivating as the rowdy participants think it is.
10/04/02
Top CriticAn enjoyably half-wit remake of the venerable Italian comedy Big Deal on Madonna Street.
10/04/02
Top CriticA few hours after you've seen it, you forget you've been to the movies.
10/04/02
Top CriticThe whole cast looks to be having so much fun with the slapstick antics and silly street patois, tossing around obscure expressions like Bellini and Mullinski, that the compact 86 minutes breezes by.
10/04/02
Top CriticDespite its gritty Cleveland locations, it has the vacuum-sealed feel of a student film bankrolled by rich uncles.
