Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Dennis Schwartz (5,456) for Ozus' World Movie Reviews (5,456) on 22 Oct 2017

Not even Malkovich could save such a leaky film, one that never stays afloat long enough to maintain an adequate focus on the family issues it raises…

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 29 Jul 2012

A passion project ill suited to cinematic adaptation, or at least sludgy, unresolved, mannered and grating in its realized incarnation…

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Todd Jorgenson (1,852) for Cinemalogue (704) on 24 Jul 2012

feels like an intimate, idiosyncratic acting workshop that might have worked better on stage…

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Farran Smith Nehme (295) for New York Post (6,650) on 12 Jul 2012

This enigmatic coming-of-age movie often seems destined to sail off the deep end. Yet it rights itself just often enough to keep you watching…

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Matt Pais (1,519) for RedEye (906) on 11 Jul 2012

Horribly written, shockingly amateur. Contrived and exhausting don't begin to summarize this inert disaster…

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) (2,277) for St. Paul Pioneer Press (4,360) on 11 Jul 2012

In the end, Drunkboat is no Glengarry Glen Ross or American Buffalo, and even if it were, the real Mamet has always worked better onstage than…

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Chris Hewitt (2,086) for St. Paul Pioneer Press (4,360) on 11 Jul 2012

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Peter Keough (994) for Boston Phoenix (1,372) on 09 Jul 2012
