Knockaround Guys Ratings & Reviews
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
This heist flick about young Brooklyn hoods is off the shelf after two years to capitalize on the popularity of Vin Diesel, Seth Green and Barry Pepper. It should have stayed there.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
The first-time directors previously penned the screenplay Rounders, and while their attention to setting and detail in both films is commendable, their development of character and storyline could stand some improvement.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Melinda Ennis
Perhaps if co-directors David Levien and Brian Koppelman had spent more time devising a coherent vision for the film, we would not have felt as knocked around after watching it.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
We know the plot's a little crazy, but it held my interest from start to finish.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Will only satisfy those who can't tell the difference between the good, the bad and the ugly.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Instantly forgettable.
San Francisco Chronicle
Carla Meyer
Lackluster.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
It's like a drive-by. You can drive right by it without noticing anything special, save for a few comic turns, intended and otherwise.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
There's nothing in the half-comic, half-serious Knockaround Guys you can't see weekly in The Sopranos.
The Hollywood Reporter
David Hunter
Of interest only to male viewers who are addicts of Scorsese-meets -Tarantino gangster-life frolics.
Denver Post
Steven Rosen
Tiresomely derivative and hammily acted.
Boston Globe
Janice Page
Despite engaging offbeat touches, Knockaround Guys rarely seems interested in kicking around a raison d'etre that's as fresh-faced as its young-guns cast.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
Although Knockaround Guys has the trimmed-down look of a studio trying to cut its losses, the movie plays like an entertaining B Western
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The movie crosses two formulas -- Fish Out of Water and Coming of Age -- fairly effectively.
New York Post
Megan Turner
Any one episode of The Sopranos would send this ill-conceived folly to sleep with the fishes.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
One of those strained caper movies that's hardly any fun to watch and begins to vaporize from your memory minutes after it ends.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
It has its moments of swaggering camaraderie, but more often just feels generic, derivative and done to death.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
What keeps this turkey from reaching even a minimum level of entertainment is the studied, melodramatic tone that the filmmakers achieve.
