Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Go for Caan and Farmiga, and stay to be surprised by Reeves.
What's needed is someone nervous to play Henry. A Steve Buscemi, for example. Reeves maintains a sort of Zen detachment.
A felony of a movie ... tedious and improbable...
If "Henry's Crime'' is occasionally too pleased with itself, it's also pleasantly unpredictable, and it has a trio of sweet hambone performances at its center.
