There is so much to admire in Matt Dillon's City of Ghosts that the feeling left over after watching it is an unsettling sense of disappointment and unfairness.

While it won't be remembered as great cinema, it is actually a tight piece of film noir.
Gary Dowell, Dallas Morning News
Rotten
While the film is not short on ideas or implications, none of them is fully developed, leaving us little but atmosphere and warm whiskey to drink in.
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press
Fresh
A long, winding, but decently layered modern film noir.
Kathy Cano Murillo, Arizona Republic
Rotten
Trades more effectively in states of alienated atmospheric delirium than it does the specific mechanics of plot.
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
