Movie Reviews

Combustible Celluloid - 10/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonA lengthy cat-and-mouse chase scene at the film's climax practically surpasses Hitchcock and even gives Scorsese's GoodFellas a run for its money.
Hartford Courant - 10/10 by Malcolm JohnsonCarlito's Way, Brian De Palma's return to the dangerous, violent world of Latino crime, marks yet another advance in the remarkable second act of Al Pacino's career.
Independent on Sunday - 10/10 by Quentin CurtisYou expect a fine performance from Pacino, and, with hopeless, hollowed-out eyes, he gives it. You expect the worst from Sean Penn. But, here, he's a hit.
New York Times - 10/10 by Janet MaslinCarlito's Way is best watched as lively, colorful posturing and as a fine demonstration of this director's bravura visual style.
New Yorker - 10/10 by Michael SragowPenn, with curled hair and wire-rims, makes a brilliant, slippery high-end shyster; his modulated hysteria is amazing. So is Brian De Palma’s direction. Few films actually made in the disco era can match the kinetic allure of this 1993 production, which has a bluesy undertow all its own.
Slant Magazine - 10/10 by Zach CampbellThough the story in Carlito’s Way is treated in a fatalistic sense, the moment-to-moment, frame-to-frame experience is anything but rigid and stodgy from over-determination. It sings, dances, punches, slinks, embeds. It moves like the luxurious tracking shots that punctuate the film.
Empire - 10/10 by Kim NewmanUtterly compelling - Sean Penn is a powerhouse in support - and with a railway station set - piece in which De Palma actually betters what was his previously Untouchable effort.
IGN - 9/10 by R.L. ShafferCarlito's Way, like Casualties of War and Mission: Impossible, seems to stand at a nexus between commercial fealty and directorial idiosyncrasy; it's a sort of half-breed film that exudes personal vision but functions satisfactorily for the multiplex crowds at the same time.
DVD Clinic - 9/10 by Scott WeinbergA great story told by a master filmmaker; sterling actors playing some truly fascinating characters; and a bunch of cinematic set-pieces that are worthy of repeat viewings.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertThe acting here, by Sean Penn, is a virtuoso tour de force - one of those performances that takes on a life of its own.
