Movie Reviews

One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekComing from such a talented filmmaker, the film is disappointingly prosaic, unable to shake a Lifetime movie-of-the-week quality.
Assignment X - 8/10 by Abbie BernsteinThe courtroom drama is powerful enough to make us wish that they'd given less time to Ms. Hobbs and more time to showing us the rest of what's known to have occurred.
Reeling Reviews - 8/10 by Laura Clifford...a good performance from Reese Witherspoon but little else (unless reality show level reenactments are your bag)
New York Observer - 8/10 by Rex ReedThe case is revisited with painstaking detail, and a riveting picture emerges once again about misunderstood outsiders.
Detroit News - 8/10 by Tom LongThe grief, the madness of the community, the plain stupidity of the cops, the mass protests that followed the convictions, the horrible power of it all - none of it comes across in this drab film.
Contactmusic.com - 8/10 by Rich ClineBased on the events documented in West of Memphis and the Paradise Lost trilogy, this drama takes an almost clinical approach to the story.
New York Daily News - 8/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanThis stilted crime drama from Atom Egoyan feels misguided from the start. He’s attempting to fictionalize a true story that has already been told better, several times over.
Maven's Nest - 7/10 by Nora Lee MandelSound and look are key to atmosphere of ominous inevitability of conviction. . .Admirable for using only local points-of-view. ..Worth seeking out for thoughtful perspective.
sbs.com.au - 7/10 by Peter GalvinIn its way, this is the most terrifying horror movie I've seen in a long time; the woods where the kids die are like something out of Evil Dead. I was left angry and wrung out.
AV Club - 7/10 by Ben KenigsbergDevil’s Knot is an inert exercise, visually and dramatically on par with "Drew Peterson: Untouchable."
