Movie Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertThe genius of The Krays, Peter Medak's new film about the most notorious villains of modern British crime, is that the movie is not simply a catalog of stabbings, garrotings and bloodletting. It goes deeper than into the twisted pathology of twins whose faces would light up with joy when their mom told them they looked just like proper gentlemen.
The Seattle Times - 9/10 by Michael UpchurchGary Kemp, as the more commanding and peculiar Ron Kray, makes an especially scary impression, particularly once the Krays' perfect control has begun to unravel. In a series of events set off by Reg's marriage, the Krays are seen on a downhill spiral that Mr. Medak conveys with great and effective understatement.
Washington Post - 9/10 by Desson ThomsonThe Krays is a foreboding, riveting metaphor about human monsters and the monstrosities of criminal life. It's one of the most original films of the year.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 8/10 by Ken HankeOccasionally successful, but not Peter Medak at his best.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Jay CarrMost surprising is the impressive showing of Gary and Martin Kemp (of Spandau Ballet) as the twins, despite fears that the 'youth cult' dimension might be too strong a factor in the concept.
Tampa Bay Times - 8/10 by Hal LipperWe never get any sense of how the brothers build their empire, or of how the various supporting characters fit into their lives. Telling this story in a more straightforward fashion would have been far more satisfying. Still, the Kemps are something to see.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Michael WilmingtonThey Live is, to scramble its most famous line, better at chewing bubblegum than kicking ass.
Newsweek - 7/10 by David AnsenUnable to strike enough fear in an audience, this brave foray nevertheless takes a hatchet to the notion that it had gone soft.
Chicago Reader - 6/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumAll in all, an entertaining (if ideologically incoherent) response to the valorization of greed in our midst, with lots of Rambo-esque violence thrown in, as well as an unusually protracted slugfest between ex-wrestler Roddy Piper and costar Keith David.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Hal HinsonAs the movie progresses, it becomes less interesting. There are some striking performances from the supporting cast, particularly Steven Berkoff's rabid portrayal of a rival gang lord. The rest of the film, in fact, could have benefited from a little of his mad-dog ferocity. As heroes, the Krays are more shadow than substance; they're stuck in metaphor.
