Dana Stevens
The New York Times
Depp's witty, spare performance gives the picture a poignancy -- a depth of feeling, if you'll allow the pun -- that Mr. Demme's hectic direction and the hurried script by David McKenna and Nick Cassavetes don't quite earn. Full Review
David Edelstein
Slate
This is an extraordinary -- and unfathomable -- piece of whitewashing: a true snow job. Full Review
Dennis Harvey
Variety
Respectable but unmemorable end result may suffer from comparison with the similarly themed, albeit differently angled, “Traffic.” Full Review
Desson Thomson
Washington Post
If any element takes us through the movie, it's him (Depp). Full Review
Edward Guthmann
San Francisco Chronicle
It's an honest portrayal, but it leaves the audience stranded, without the emotional hook of a character we can care about. Full Review
