Solid work from the cast - particularly a scene-stealing Matthew McConaughey - helps White Boy Rick make up for a number of missed opportunities in the script.

The issue is not that the film focuses on a white kid, but that it doesn't seem much interested in the black lives hit disproportionately hard by the war on drugs. Dec 7, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Yet roughing up his pretty-boy looks and playing people destined for defeat rather than Hollywood endings has become a cliché for McConaughey. Dec 6, 2018 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

I can think of no reason any bright, witty or halfway sophisticated movie lover-or otherwise normal person-would want to spend 10 minutes with any of the criminal degenerates in this worthless load of crap. Sep 18, 2018 | Rating: 0/4 | Full Review…

There's something strangely uninvolving about White Boy Rick, despite all its claims to be a sensational true story. Sep 17, 2018 | Full Review…

White Boy Rick is a solid effort that introduces Merritt and reminds us why we love McConaughey and the fact that it is based on a true story makes it all the more interesting. Jul 8, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

As a gangster flick, White Boy Rick doesn't hold a candle to the films it aspires to be... in some ways, that's OK. Solid performances carry us through a narrative that's just one needle in a massive haystack of lives lost to the criminal justice system. May 28, 2019 | Full Review…

White Boy Rick isn't any different from what you see about numerous men of color going to prison. Except the person going to prison and betrayed by forces meant to protect him is a white dude. Mar 1, 2019 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review…

The nervous and tense staging in this film can't topple a story that doesn't decide if its a melodrama or a thriller. [Full Review in Spanish] Feb 8, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

[Matthew McConaughey] is, in short, not only the film's motor but its moral justification, the fullest representation of a state of affairs and an era marked by social, political and economic decline. [Full review in Spanish] Feb 8, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
