Leave your thoughts about Serving Up Richard.
| Shockya.comBrent SimonA tepid domestic hostage drama with the additional elemental garnish of cannibalism, Serving Up Richard is a silly, yawning bore. |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferAfter a promising first hour filled with suspense and clever dark comedy, it sinks into implausibility, silliness and banality. Its bite could use sharper teeth. |
| New York TimesNeil GenzlingerMr. McCall spends most of the film in a cell, but he does a fine job of keeping his character interesting. |
| Film Journal InternationalEric MonderDo we really need another cannibal movie? A minor mess, Serving Up Richard is almost indigestible. |
| New York PostSara StewartUltimately Serving Up Richard feels about as substantial as a Happy Meal (which this poor guy assuredly is not). |
| Village VoiceAndrew SchenkerGlory's inconsistent characterization defeats rather than builds tension, and the tepid soon gives way to the ridiculous. |
| Slant MagazineChuck BowenAfter a promising entrapment scene that offers some casually eerie narrative details, the film collapses, lurching awkwardly between a variety of tones and intentions. |
| NPRIan BuckwalterOlek never decides what his film should be, and the result takes wild stabs at slasher gore, supernatural horror, black comedy and even social commentary, thanks to a zero-hour attempt to tie things up with a morality tale about the damaging effects of organized religion. |
| User ReviewJessica BWhile it starts out with a slightly promising premise after 30 minutes it's all downhill and boring. |
