Village Voice
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

Los Angeles Times
McKay never quite catches fire as a thriller and, truth be told, it's not much of a character study either. Full Review

The Hollywood Reporter
Goldberger mistakes deadness for deadpan and mere oddness for that touch of genius that allows a first-rate filmmaker to get laughs out of the contrast between gruesome acts and mundane social concerns. Full Review
