The Whole Truth Ratings & Reviews
IndieWire
Steve Greene
The film's closing minutes offer some parting pieces of information that upend some previously laid assumptions, but it's a grafted-on coda rather than a well-choreographed gut punch.
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
There is some good acting here but I think the script done them wrong.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Chris Bumbray
Some interesting work (particularly from Renee Zellweger and James Belushi) is marred by some lazy narrative devices, specifically the constant voice-over narration.
We Got This Covered
Robert Yaniz, Jr.
Keanu Reeves effectively anchors The Whole Truth, but a capable cast can only do so much to keep the lingering mystery afloat before logic weighs it down.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Perry Mason could have easily spotted the holes in the testimony of this lackluster courtroom thriller.
New York Daily News
Dan Gunderman
If you want the whole truth, Courtney Hunt's new film is not so bad.
Common Sense Media
Barbara Shulgasser
Tense courtroom drama has violence, sex, language.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
The script for The Whole Truth is an "airport book," although it contains even less sizzle and grit than most of those.
The Film Stage
Conor O'Donnell
There's nothing monumental at play in The Whole Truth, but it's not entirely without merit, satisfying on the same level one would digest a grocery store paperback.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Trundling along on the drone of Ramsay's pseudo-hardboiled voice-over, "The Whole Truth" plays like an especially claustrophobic courtroom procedural, drably photographed and generically framed.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Instead of building tension, "The Whole Truth" lets it bleed out.
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
The film's bleached colors and Reeves' trademark woodenness add to its emotional remoteness, though Basso, Zellweger and Belushi create a convincing family in crisis.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Compelling, supported by an unusual cast, but Hunt doesn't bring grit to this mainstream event, which gradually evolves into Grisham-esque nonsense.
AV Club
Noel Murray
Usually, with a movie as mundane as The Whole Truth, it's tempting to say that a better cast and crew would've made something more special. But on paper, this film had the goods.
Observer
Rex Reed
A total disaster that's been hanging around the editing room gathering dust for more than a year, you can't call it deadly because that would imply it's still alive. This one is already dead on arrival.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
This engaging courtroom drama aces the trick of grounding its ludicrousness in a convincing facsimile of reality.
TheWrap
Michael Nordine
Marked by the legalese and narrative pivots demanded by the genre, but lacking enough verve to offset its familiarity, Courtney Hunt's film returns a verdict of Not Bad.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Viewers who've spent any time watching TV courtroom dramas will probably believe they've figured out "The Whole Truth" from practically its opening scene, and despite a few minor twists along the way, chances are, they have.
The Hollywood Reporter
Sheri Linden
[W]hat might have been a tantalizing whodunit about the less-than-gleaming gears of justice ... is instead a curiously uninvolving exercise in procedure.
Slant Magazine
Kenji Fujishima
Courtney Hunt's film ultimately plays as little more than the cinematic equivalent of a trashy airport novel.
