[W]ell done and coherent in a traditional way we hardly see anymore. It's an old-fashioned undercover/gangster movie

[T]hough it stumbles on every cinematic level – acting, directing, story, character development, dialogue – what's worse is that it's strongly distasteful and entirely pointless

- Todd Lothery
