Leave your thoughts about Triple 9.
| Film Journal InternationalDaniel EaganUndeniably exciting at times, it's just as often laughably bad-not a good combination at the box office. |
| Shadow and ActAramide TinubuThe real screen stealer in Triple 9 is Clifton Collins Jr., as the quietly diabolical, dirty detective Rodriguez. He is a reason why this film will keep you glued to your seat. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperJust about every scene features an Oscar winner or an Oscar nominee or an Emmy winner and/or a first-rate character actor — and just about every scene is a bloody mix of taut thriller and utterly implausible noir plot point. This is a sordid but slick and gutsy mess that comes across like a cover-band version of a Michael Mann movie. |
| Minneapolis Star TribuneColin Covert"Triple 9" is a superbly crafted film, the sort of big-screen roller coaster I admire even if its plot falters. |
| MTVAmy Nicholson#AllLivesMatter? Not here. Hillcoat wants us to admit the truth behind the robbers' callous calculation: Some people are worth more than others. |
| Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.comCary DarlingThe slam-bang opening bank robbery and chase channels the best of Michael Mann from his Heat days. But Triple 9 soon bleeds out and becomes a perfunctory hodgepodge of other crime movies. |
| Lainey GossipSarah MarrsIt's a reasonably effective thriller that works because of its A+ cast and one really well executed action set piece in the middle of the movie. |
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyThe most impressive thing about Triple 9 is that it somehow manages to be both predictable and incoherent at the same time. Well, that and the fact that it manages to make half a dozen good actors look really lost. |
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlThe story isn't complex, but its telling is tangled, often willfully so. |
| ABC Radio BrisbaneMatthew ToomeyTriple 9 is a complex story with simplistic characters. The two don't go together. |
