Movie Reviews

ComingSoon.net - 10/10 by Edward DouglasFalls quite short of its mark, mostly due to the poor casting as well as a deathly slow pace that far too often veers away from [the film's] greatest strength, which is the music.
Killer Movie Reviews - 10/10 by Andrea Chaselike a rich and complex novel rendered as a visual experience that is equally rich and as unabashedly poetic in its images as Sayles is with his metaphors
Chicago Reader - 9/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumDanny Glover, as hard-rock reliable as Spencer Tracy in his prime, plays onetime pianist Tyrone "Pine Top" Purvis.
Flipside Movie Emporium - 9/10 by Rob VauxAny time Sayles clicks with his material this succinctly, the results are thrilling.
One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekThe cumulative effect is very tasty indeed.
Combustible Celluloid - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonJohn Sayles returns with another literate, professional, yet highly enjoyable film.
Washington Post - 9/10 by Ann HornadayTrudging nobly under a mantle of impeccably earnest intentions and a fussy, too-quaint-by-half production design, Honeydripper lags and drags to its utterly predictable end. There's not a spark of spontaneity or soul about it.
I.E. Weekly - 9/10 by Amy NicholsonThe only surprise in all this scripted sentiment is its apparent conclusion that maybe the blues deserve to be dead
New York Times - 9/10 by Stephen HoldenHoneydripper is agreeable, well-intentioned and very, very slow. Sadly, it illustrates the difference between an archetype and a stereotype. When the first falls flat, it turns into the other and becomes a cliché.
L.A. Weekly - 9/10 by Ernest HardyHoneydripper is classic Sayles cinema: an insightful sketch of assorted common folk whose criss-crossing dreams and agendas unfold against larger, more powerful (and sometimes crushing) sociopolitical and cultural forces.
