Harold Perrineau gives unintentionally comic expression in Felon to the delineation between his character's public and private scruples. Full Review

New York Daily News
There are times when a Kilmer performance is like watching a clock move: well-timed and oddly compelling, even though it's totally predictable. That's the case with Felon, which doesn't belong to Kilmer but which he steals anyhow. Full Review

A good cast and disciplined direction add some distinction to Ric Roman Waugh's Felon, which is basically the old tale about an innocent man corrupted by a stay in prison. Full Review

Kilmer and Dorff, who was also an executive producer, immerse themselves in difficult roles. Full Review

Felon is not a total bust. What does work is because of the strength of the actors. Dorff brings a visceral sense of desperation to his performance, though he does tend to go too big too quickly. Kilmer gives the film its center as an alien, still presence amid the chaos around him. Full Review
