Critic Reviews

Deliciously funny and fiendishly clever con-man comedy that begins on a note of ingenuity that it then sustains with the tension of a high-wire act.Full Review

Kevin Thomas
Los Angeles Times

As tricky and satisfying as any of David Mamet's airless cinematic shell games. Mamet's films are all plot and no atmosphere; this one has a squalid, urban-greed-meets-the-gutter mood that lends its filigreed cleverness an unusually resonant kick.Full Review

Owen Gleiberman
Entertainment Weekly

A seductively structured and superbly acted suspenser that breathtakingly piles swindle upon scam without giving away the game until the very end.Full Review

Todd McCarthy
Variety

The kind of movie that seduces you into becoming putty in its manipulative card-sharking hands and making you enjoy being taken in by its shameless contrivance.Full Review

Stephen Holden
The New York Times

When you think you've figured out Bielinsky's great game, that's when you're in the most trouble: He's the con, and you're just the mark.Full Review
