Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
As straightforward in narrative as it is gut-wrenching in effect, A Simple Plan is a sort of slow-motion skid down an icy blacktop- it's a movie you watch with a mounting sense of dread.

fresh:
Raimi takes the old story about dishonour among thieves and renders it fresh through the calm, cool, steady assurance of the telling.

fresh:
Perfect capers gone horribly, inexorably awry have always kept audiences squirming. But just when we think we've seen it all, Raimi offers a few new wrinkles.

fresh:
A Simple Plan is lean, elegant, and emotionally complex - a marvel of backwoods classicism.
