| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatAnother ethical exploration by Davd Mamet, this time looking at the meaning of integrity. |
| Film ThreatMatthew SorrentoAs Mamet writes, so he directs -- his shots get to the point, usually one we don't forget. |
| Movie MetropolisChristopher LongThe doomy mood of the final scenes packs a wallop that's missing from Mamet's more contrived narratives. |
| Filmcritic.comPaul Brennera high wire neo-noir that bravely incorporates the urban thriller with the crazy twist of religious conversion and the saving/condemning of a divided soul. |
| Tsunami MagazineClint MorrisNobody does it like Mamet. A terrific cop movie. |
| New York Magazine/VultureJohn LeonardIf you aren't already a fan, you may be mystified. If you've always been one, though, this is closure -- like a guillotine. |
| Bangitout.comJordan HillerHomicide, David Mamet's ponderous film about a Jewish cop losing his way, loses its way whenever it wanders from the scene of the crime |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzHas an hypnotic quality that kept me riveted. |
| User ReviewNeil LPerfect film with a great twist, very clever and endlessly enjoyable. |
| User ReviewJeremiah LA great David Mamet script with his favourite actor Joe Mantegna in the lead role as a detective questioning his own ethnicity. Wilkiam H Macy co-stars as his offsider in a tame straight role |
