Critics Consensus: Several genres and plotlines intertwine in Lonely Hearts but don't connect, creating an uneven and unsatisfying film.

There is some strong work here, but too many misfires.
The story of Fernandez and Beck may be grotesque comedy, but Todd Robinson tells it straight, without flinching from its piteousness, horror, or banality.
Where's James Ellroy when you need him?
When Hayek and Leto are onscreen, you do not look away.
It's with the focus on the police, though, that the script fails to truly connect.
A rather plodding movie.
This is the version that's easily forgettable.
Leto's layered performance as the nattily dressing dandy with no remorse is truly impressive.
Un buen ejemplo de cine negro, género fuera de moda que aún conserva su encanto.
Noir-ish murder tale is far too dark for kids.
A good, not great, movie that benefits from nice period detail and some strong performances (especially Hayek and Leto), even if the real-life Beck was a heavyset, homely mess not anywhere near as attractive as Hayek.
Except for the fact that innocent lives are lost here, it would be easy to walk away from Lonely Hearts saying "so what?".
Surprisingly good little crime thriller. The setting is a very realistic recreation of the late fourties. Salma is gorgeous, and magniciently evil. The rest of the cast is really good across the board...even Travolta. I really wasn't expecting too much from this movie, but I was really amazed at the quality. Some rather intense brutality scenes, also.
Super Reviewer
this was a phenomenal film. total sleeper because i hadnt heard anything about it, i just rented it based on the cast, and it was better than expected. much better. one of the best films of this year so far, the entire cast really delivered. the film was written well and i loved gandolfini's narrative. salma heyak was top notch and the film was engaging but incredibly haunting and sad at the same time. worth a watch.
A decent crime drama based on a true story of a murdering couple in the 1940's and 50's. It has an exceptional cast, but wonders between crime drama and the sub stories a bit too much. A slow paced film without a lot of action. ok but could have been a lot better.
LONELY HEARTS Jared Leto loses his boyish looks in this film as he transforms himself into an older man and teams up with Salma Hayek to become lovers on a rampage in a Bonnie & Clyde fashion. Worth watching, but don?t make it a high priority.
