Movie Reviews

The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Noel MurrayFelon's dialogue is overheated and some of its plot twists are preposterous, yet it's still white-knuckle tense, and held together by dozens of small, well-observed moments.
Variety - 7/10 by Ronnie ScheibStephen Dorff's powerhouse perf as an ordinary Joe trapped behind bars with warring ethnic psychopaths propels Felon well ahead of its expose/exploitation brethren while still avoiding the pious learning curves of Frank Darabont's prestige prison dramas.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Stephen HoldenMr. Dorff’s hot-wired portrayal of a prisoner under physical and psychic siege gives Felon its emotional through line as Wade’s attitude metamorphoses from stunned disbelief, to terror, to despair, to fury and finally to hope.
The Hollywood Reporter - 7/10 by Stephen FarberThe most startling performance comes from Val Kilmer as Wade's hardened cellmate, a man who combines bitterness with wisdom.
Village Voice - 6/10 by Ed GonzalezHarold Perrineau gives unintentionally comic expression in Felon to the delineation between his character's public and private scruples.
TV Guide Magazine - 6/10 by Maitland McDonaghKilmer and Dorff, who was also an executive producer, immerse themselves in difficult roles.
New York Post - 5/10 by Lou LumenickA good cast and disciplined direction add some distinction to Ric Roman Waugh's Felon, which is basically the old tale about an innocent man corrupted by a stay in prison.
Los Angeles Times - 5/10 by Mark OlsenFelon is not a total bust. What does work is because of the strength of the actors. Dorff brings a visceral sense of desperation to his performance, though he does tend to go too big too quickly. Kilmer gives the film its center as an alien, still presence amid the chaos around him.
Entertainment Weekly - 5/10 by Owen GleibermanVal Kilmer, as a polite horn-rimmed sociopath with a heart of gold, keeps showing up to drop Nietzschean pensées.
New York Daily News - 4/10 by Joe NeumaierThere are times when a Kilmer performance is like watching a clock move: well-timed and oddly compelling, even though it's totally predictable. That's the case with Felon, which doesn't belong to Kilmer but which he steals anyhow.
