Critic Reviews for Cedar Boys

All Critics (2) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (1)

Clearly an admirer of Jules Dassin (Topkapi, Rififi), director Serhat Caradee shows skill at building tension through stillness, often filling quiet scenes with long, uneasy pauses that suggest bloodshed is just one wrong word away.

Jim Schembri
The Age (Australia)
A competent but frustratingly conventional slice-of-life drama, Serhat Caradee's Cedar Boys tries hard to be all things for all audience members but just falls short.
