Blow Ratings & Reviews
Newsweek
David Ansen
The first half of Blow is a shallow but lively fun ride; the audience gets a contact high. But when George's fortunes start to go from bad to worse, so does the movie.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
This is one of the few drug movies where you actually feel a little sorry for the drug-dealing coke-infested lead character.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Peter Rainer
The filmmakers are torn between presenting George's life story as a cautionary tale, or as a blast.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
We've just been to this party before and we know how it ends, again and again and again.
Slate
David Edelstein
An extraordinary -- and unfathomable -- piece of whitewashing.
Seattle Times
John Zebrowski
Blow fades a bit in its second half, weighed down by a need to closely follow Jung's life. But even then, the actors are so compelling that it's just a mild discomfort.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
A mediocre biopic.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
Grabs hold of you by the lapels and simply won't let go.
Newsday
John Anderson
Depp aside, the acting is almost uniformly atrocious -- although it's hard to make hay out of this dialogue.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Neither a tragedy nor a morality play, but rather a jaunty, candy-colored romp through a quarter century or so of American pop music, pop fashion and popular illegal substances.
USA Today
Mike Clark
It's one of the few major releases so far this year that is worth a grown-up's time.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
Tthe movie is higher on style than it is on substance, but one of its strong suits is that it never stoops so low as to lecture us. It throttles by with irresponsible abandon.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
In its way, this sometimes hilarious, sometimes deeply moving film has more to say about the influence of drugs on American society than the self-important Traffic.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
Very little about this druggy drama works as intended.
Detroit News
Susan Stark
There's a been there, done that quality to this picture for anyone who saw the far nervier, more flamboyant Scarface -- not to mention the far grittier, urgent Traffic.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Ambitious but repetitive.
Denver Post
Steven Rosen
An indelible portrait of one decent man's blown life.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Take away the drugs, and this is the story of a boring life in wholesale.
Boxoffice Magazine
Tim Cogshell
For the most part a very well-produced HBO movie.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
Languishes nondescriptly in a vast powdery wasteland, somewhere between Boogie Nights and Scarface.
