Your Reviews

The most ridiculous, worst acted waste of time and money I've seen in a REALLY long time. Thomas Haden Church, is sitcom horrible and i've never seen... Elisabeth Shue worse. i would have walked out, but I kept thinking SOMETHING WOULD HAPPEN. It did, more bad acting, writing and directing. Melissa Leo is the only one who grabbed onto a shred of reality. even with the electrifyingly bad script. I should have known when there was only one other person in the theatre and we both shifted and grunted thru the whole thing. run don't walk A-WAY. Full Review

The premise of the short-story-size comic thriller Don McKay is as thin and crumbly as a corn chip.Full Review

Entertainment Weekly

Quirky goes a surprisingly long way before stalling out in Don McKay, an oddball comedy with the knowing, festering heart of a neo-noir.Full Review

The New York Times

He definitely needs more experience, but writer/director Jake Goldberger displays an appealingly skewed sense of humor in his noir debut.Full Review

Elizabeth Weitzman
New York Daily News

A strange, largely inert indie thriller, Don McKay has got good bones (inspired by Blood Simple, it has a solid cast and a strong pitch) but a terrible metabolism.Full Review

Village Voice

A film noir set mostly in broad daylight, Don McKay, writer-director Jake Goldberger's mild riff on "Double Indemnity," etc., works best as a showcase for its veteran cast, particularly Elisabeth Shue.Full Review
