Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A tense, engrossing Texas thriller with a sense of humor as sharp and wounding as a Bowie knife.

fresh:
Pulp fiction doesn't come much better than Cold in July, a gritty, grisly - and perversely giddy - crime yarn directed by Pottstown-born indie-film provocateur Jim Mickle.

rotten:
Hall does his best to make sense of Dane, but the plot turns simply don't add up. Good work in a not-so-good movie.

fresh:
Initially the late-80s setting of Cold in July registers as kitsch, but it grows more evocative as the Carpenter impersonation gives way to something weirder and uglier.

fresh:
A well-paced story that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats as it bucks and rolls in unexpected directions to a bloody and satisfying climax.
