Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Croupier is taut, tense and enthralling, as smart and surprising as its protagonist.
– Peter Travers,
Rolling Stone,
10 May 2001
fresh:
Polished and adroit ado about next to nothing, Hodges's film owes everything to Owen, who nails the vaguely unsavory, unreadable, half-lidded hunks that inhabit every profitable entertainment-industry outpost.
– Michael Atkinson,
Village Voice,
1 Jan 2000
fresh:
The choice of Clive Owen as the star is a good one. He's got the same sort of physical reserve as Sean Connery in the Bond pictures.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,

fresh:
Owen is superb.

Don't let Croupier go by without a look.
