Movie Reviews

eFilmCritic.com - 10/10 by Peter Sobczynski"Redbelt" is a smart and stirring drama in which the intellectual conflicts turn out to be almost as exciting as the more visceral physical ones.
HollywoodChicago.com - 10/10 by Adam FendelmanDavid Mamet combines his famous rat-a-tat dialogue rhythms with a story that he describes as 'American samurai'. This collaboration of Mamet, Chiwetel Ejiofor and the purity of martial arts join forces for a captivating and one-of-a-kind film experience.
Sin Magazine - 10/10 by Austin KennedyFrom the very first scene I was completely enthralled by this complex character study.
The Daily Gazette (Schenectady, NY) - 9/10 by Dan DiNicolaWith Ejiofor standing above the rest, the performances are uniformly excellent.
I.E. Weekly - 9/10 by Amy NicholsonDavid Mamet must have gotten roundhouse kicked in the head to think there was a story worth telling in his latest macho faceoff.
Laramie Movie Scope - 9/10 by Robert RotenThe plot is intriguing enough to keep the audience guessing until the end.
CinemaBlend.com - 9/10 by Brian HolcombIt's not the characteristically sharp Mamet dialogue that makes Ejiofor effective so much as what he does between the lines: Moments of powerful contemplation and silence.
East Bay Express - 9/10 by Kelly VanceIt's always fun to watch the Mamet stock company springing a trap on an unwary victim.
E! Online - 9/10 by Chris FarnsworthThis scores high on the ass-kickery meter, and what could have been another generic fight film is elevated into a thinking-man's Rocky by writer-director David Mamet.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 9/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)Watching Redbelt is like watching a chess game. As Mamet manipulates his characters, it's involving and occasionally thrilling, but it never makes you feel much.
