Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Larry Ratliff (323) for San Antonio Express-News (323) on 28 Sep 2008

It's good to see the two great actors of their generation back together in Righteous Kill…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Anthony Quinn (478) for Independent (UK) (2,026) on 25 Sep 2008

Instead, it's a rather pompous, disappointing one, and a squandered opportunity to boot…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Nigel Andrews (1,359) for Financial Times (1,822) on 25 Sep 2008

The movie goes nowhere and takes 100 minutes to do so. It should have cut its losses, gone for comedy and called itself Grumpy Old Cops…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Christopher Tookey (761) for Daily Mail (UK) (1,461) on 25 Sep 2008

The whole thing feels as tired and over-familiar as its leading men. Really, only three words need saying to Pacino and De Niro: you're too old…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Dennis Brabham (2) for Total Film (3,532) on 25 Sep 2008

A spotty cop procedural that serves its purpose performance-wise; De Niro and Pacino have been better, but they've also been far, far worse…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Anna Smith (519) for Metro (UK) (700) on 25 Sep 2008

Righteous Kill is not particularly good…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Tim Evans (725) for Sky Cinema (1,726) on 25 Sep 2008

It's an effective whodunnit but - more importantly - it poses refined, complex questions about how the law operates in a so-called civilised society…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Sukhdev Sandhu (247) for Daily Telegraph (UK) (2,495) on 25 Sep 2008

And so the film trundles on. A preposterously booming score just serves to emphasise the clichéd script, sound design and cinematography…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By James Christopher (268) for Times (UK) (2,458) on 25 Sep 2008

The plot is irrelevant because the film is utterly infatuated with the two big egos…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Matthew De Abaitua (44) for Film4 (1,522) on 25 Sep 2008

Scenes come and go in clouds of confusion, flashbacks and cutaways leaping in and out of the action like misbehaving children, but a moral…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Trevor Johnston (624) for Time Out (7,510) on 25 Sep 2008

They look like jobbing veteran actors picking up another payday in some routine cop filler, and Avnet's busily clueless direction offers them…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Chris Hewitt (Uk) (87) for Empire Magazine (3,326) on 25 Sep 2008

Righteous Kill is a rote and lumbering thriller that forgets to supply any thrills, and which hangs on the revelation of a twist so obvious…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Rich Cline (3,056) for Shadows on the Wall (2,096) on 24 Sep 2008

This cop drama is far too ordinary to live up to the hype. Spiky and watchable, it doesn't really stretch anyone. Especially the audience…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Victor Olliver (198) for Teletext (251) on 24 Sep 2008

This reminds me of The Simpsons episode where Grandpa Abe rides a bike with no hands proclaiming, Look at me, I'm acting young…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Stephen Silver (684) for The Trend (130) on 18 Sep 2008

Even if it were pretty good - which it's not - Righteous Kill would fall a distant third in the rankings of films in which Al Pacino and Robert…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Jim Lane (1,151) for Sacramento News & Review (1,702) on 18 Sep 2008

if the movie starred Al Schwartz and Robert Greenblatt, it would hardly be worth watching…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Linda Cook (1,442) for Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) (1,206) on 15 Sep 2008

Here's a mess of a movie that has two things going for it: The star power of its two leads…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Mark Ramsey (290) for MovieJuice! (290) on 15 Sep 2008

Robert De Niro is having sex with Carla Gugino. I know…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Joseph Proimakis (212) for Movies for the Masses (212) on 15 Sep 2008

Miamisi ora tis megalyteris arpahtis poy ehoyn kanei pote stin kariera toys o Pacino ki o De Niro, poiitika eironiko kai righteous poy tin kanoyn mazi…

Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Tim Brayton (2,283) for Antagony & Ecstasy (1,911) on 14 Sep 2008

Good in the way that makes it worth catching on basic cable during the commercial breaks of something better…
