| The A.V. ClubLuke Y. ThompsonCage may hate that people quote his over-the-top moments out of context, but since this entire movie is one, you can’t really take any of it the wrong way. |
| Film ThreatBobby LePireCage and Kinnaman work well together, with the former being gloriously over-the-top and the latter keeping things grounded in a form of reality. All in all, this thriller works from beginning to end. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleSympathy for the Devil does the two things that every good Nicolas Cage movie must do: It gives him license to be manic, but it also gives him a realistic context in which his mania can delight and surprise. |
| The Film StageJared MobarakCage is having the time of his life playing the role––flippant, unhinged, oozing the confidence of a man with nothing to lose. |
| Austin ChronicleRichard WhittakerIt's mean, gritty, and brutally nihilist, its mystery unwrapping before it strangles you with its perfect meanness. If noir is about, as the old saying goes, bad people doing bad things for good reasons, then Sympathy for the Devil bleeds in all the right ways. |
| ColliderMarco Vito OddoSympathy for the Devil should be thankful for Cage and Kinnaman's brilliant dynamics as, without them, the movie would be nothing more than a bland thriller. |
| IGNKatie RifeNicolas Cage’s live-wire performance fuels a compelling, if predictable, crime thriller. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJordan MintzerCage chews up every scene he’s in and seems to be having a blast — he’s always over-the-top and never boring to watch, in a film that delivers the goods for those who like him best when he’s just about lost his mind. |
| Screen DailyTim GriersonDirector Yuval Adler taps into the lean story’s Collateral-like intrigue but, outside of Cage’s hair-trigger antics, there is not much surprise here — especially when the filmmaker unveils a twist most will see coming down the road. |
| The GuardianLeslie FelperinIf you were programming a season of the best of the worst from Nicolas Cage’s filmography – in other words, his most interesting/outlandish/crazed performances in low-budget films – this kooky thriller would certainly be a good candidate. |
