Milwaukee, Minnesota Ratings & Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Jonathan Curiel
Memorable enough to warrant another shot at director. This film ends in a way that proves Mindel doesn't rely on cliches to make a statement.
Chicago Tribune
Allison Benedikt
Everyone seems to be playing someone else in Allan Mindel's full-of-potential, slight-of-script Milwaukee, Minnesota.
Capital Times (Madison, WI)
Rob Thomas
A weird but tasty slice of Midwestern noir.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Most of its cast makes strong impressions, but the plot and motivation don't quite jell, resulting in a minor item that shows its star Troy Garity to good advantage.
L.A. Weekly
Ernest Hardy
More predictable than its makers seem aware, its emotional hooks much too dull to pull us in.
Compuserve
Harvey S. Karten
Two miscast actors provide all the annoyance the public can take.
Observer
Rex Reed
A strange, compelling film, with Mr. Garity as a likeable, winning centerpiece.
Entertainment Insiders
Jonathan W. Hickman
Milwaukee, Minnesota is familiar but manages to be unique in flourishes that come when you least expect them.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
An odd movie that wears its idiosyncrasies poorly.
Filmcritic.com
Jay Antani
From the outset, the movie bumbles into genre territory inhabited by superior specimens
New York Times
Ned Martel
Allan Mindel is too taken with a Midwestern strain of weirdos who flounder in ramshackle houses, no-tell hotels and depressing juke joints.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
Allan Mindel's directing debut gives off the smug air of hipsters at play, making it hard to care what happens to any of its lost souls and inept opportunists.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Solid acting by a cast headed by Troy Garity -- and striking cinematography by Bernd Heinl -- helps redeem Allan Mindel's never-quite-believable crime drama Milwaukee, Minnesota.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Why do filmmakers persist in believing that we want to watch actors pretend to be mentally challenged?
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Nick Carter
The busyness of the story, filled with conventional crime-plot scams and devices, only further exposes the narrative's thinness.
Variety
Scott Foundas
It's satisfied to be a series of monkeyshines in which Albert tries to stay one step ahead of the opportunists -- a task certainly easy enough for the audience.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
First-time director Allen Mindel is too lackadaisical in pushing the story along. By the time the narrative picks up steam, we've lost ours.
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
A very uneven dark comedy.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
It's Milwaukee, Minnesota that turns out to be, as Tuey might put it, mildly "retarded."
Village Voice
Joshua Land
First-timer Allan Mindel nails the snowbound rhythms of upper Midwestern life and orchestrates a near perfect ending, a fade-to-white over an unlikely promised land.
