Amateur Ratings & Reviews
Film Comment Magazine
Robert Horton
I liked it, though it is the first Hartley movie that has seemed more mechanical than organic.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
An enjoyable quirky-humored hit man flick.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Less quirky than earlier films, Amateur pushes its humor too hard and the conceit of amnesia is absurd, but there are poignant observations about purity versus experience and ignorance versus knowledge.
ToxicUniverse.com
Jeremiah Kipp
A deadpan examination of coincidence versus signs; tangibility versus faith.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Comes across as an interesting study of the ways in which we are all amatuers at changing our lives.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
I found the idea of the plot more interesting than the plot itself, and am finding the movie more fun to write about than to see.
