Movie Reviews

ColeSmithey.com - 9/10 by Cole Smitheyit's the film's stellar cast, along with a gritty narrative and stylized direction, that makes The Cincinnati Kid the best poker movie ever.
Kansas City Kansan - 9/10 by Steve CrumMoody and stylish, and McQueen is cool as ever.
Variety - 8/10 by Variety StaffAdapted from Richard Jessup's realistically-written novel, it emerges a tenseful examination of the gambling fraternity.
Film Threat - 8/10 by Rory L. AronskyOne of Norman Jewison's core themes of his career is the singular figure and how his or her's goals, desires, and actions affect the people around them.
USA Today - 8/10 by Mike ClarkThe Cincinnati Kid is one of the definitions of what made Steve McQueen who he was. Through the roles he chose, he fit snugly in them, using his calm wits and all else of him to turn himself into the ultimately cool actor.
IndieWire - 8/10 by Oliver LyttletonIt still stands up as a solid little poker movie, setting up the template for many imitators to come.
Cinema Crazed - 8/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.A brilliant and utterly entertaining McQueen vehicle and one that fans of the actor will enjoy the most.
Reel Film Reviews - 8/10 by David Nusair...an erratically-paced yet stirring drama that benefits greatly from McQueen's mere presence...
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzIt's the Hustler, with Steve McQueen playing stud poker instead of Paul Newman shooting pool.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 7/10 by Emanuel LevyMcQueen's first teaming with director Jewison is not as fun to watch as the later Thomas Crown Affair, but the actor gives a cool, understated perfromance.
