Henry's Crime 2010

James Rocchi, MSN Movies: You wish anyone on either side of the camera had a cup of coffee and then the energy to throw out weak scenes and flawed motivations while picking up the pace. Read more

Manohla Dargis, New York Times: Its mood is so muffled and point so submerged, it's difficult to see why Mr. Reeves and the rest of the cast pooled their talents to make a movie about a nowhere man going no place in particular in Buffalo. Read more

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times: An intermittently entertaining comedy/drama with a funny script and a fatal miscasting. Read more

Tasha Robinson, AV Club: It's a grating muddle, typified by Reeves as a protagonist who's so frustratingly vapid that even the other characters seem baffled at his blankness. Read more

Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic: Go for Caan and Farmiga, and stay to be surprised by Reeves. Read more

Ty Burr, Boston Globe: If "Henry's Crime'' is occasionally too pleased with itself, it's also pleasantly unpredictable, and it has a trio of sweet hambone performances at its center. Read more

Rex Reed, New York Observer: Close but no cigar. Read more

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: What's needed is someone nervous to play Henry. A Steve Buscemi, for example. Reeves maintains a sort of Zen detachment. Read more

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: "Henry's Crime" is a movie that eschews the details and tries to get by on charm, and it does have charm - just not enough to get by. Read more

Tom Huddleston, Time Out: Farmiga radiates warmth and Caan hasn't had a role this meaty since 'Misery'. A quiet triumph. Read more

Peter Debruge, Variety: Part of what makes Henry such a frustrating hero is how little he reveals of his emotions. Read more

Michelle Orange, Village Voice: Henry's Crime has a little too much in common with its aimless namesake. Read more
