Slow Burn Ratings & Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Toddy Burton
The cast, particularly Liotta, walks around with befuddled expressions on their faces, perhaps wondering what on earth they're doing in this movie and how they can find a new agent ASAP.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
An unappealing big city neo-noir film.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Shelved for over a year, this incompetent mystery thriller stops periodically so some character or other can deliver an expository speech and pull the plot back on track, but by the end the story has turned into a hair ball.
NewsBlaze
Kam Williams
A slow death.
DVDTalk.com
David Cornelius
The screenplay is riddled with so many problems, clichés, cheats, and borrowed ideas that the movie never takes off on a story level.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Barely flickers as a far-fetched urban tale of chameleon-like characters.
Sacramento News & Review
Jim Lane
...the story is intriguing enough to hold our interest through all the film noir pretensions...
Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)
Linda Cook
When a movie has been sitting around since 2003, why wouldn't you just throw it at the DVD shelf rather than subjecting big-screen audiences to it?
Entertainment Weekly
Scott Brown
A strange, sprained, but sprightly fusion of The Usual Suspects and the Tragic Mulatto, Slow Burn wants badly to turn its standard neo-noir into a nuanced racial chiaroscuro.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Easy to understand why Slow Burn sat on the shelf for four years, but harder to understand why it didn't go straight to DVD or Showtime late night.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
If you have not figured out the identity of Luden by the finale, it will only be because you do not care.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
The bigger problem is that for all the plot turns and reversals and flashes of action that Beach has structured into his film, there's an elusive extra something that's missing.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
John Grisham meets The Usual Suspects by way of late-night Cinemax in this derivative thriller.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Nothing is what it seems -- unless it seems cheesy.
Boston Globe
Michelle Kung
A lesson in how not to make a multiple-viewpoint mystery.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Slow Burn is a wooden police thriller that is as dull as it is impenetrable and ultimately beyond ludicrous.
Variety
Eddie Cockrell
Has direct-to-video etched all over it.
Los Angeles Times
Mark Olsen
Beach's storytelling tactics, much like the film as a whole, would simply be annoying if they weren't also borderline insulting.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
[Director] Beach slams open the trap doors of false and real identity with such a frenzy that, even at the end, you're not sure who's who and what they did to whom. It's sloppy fun to watch while you're in the theater.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
LL Cool J's ambition to make it sound as if he's "doin' it" with every syllable that comes out of his mouth works to campily put the fire out on the film's offensive pretense to race consciousness.
