Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Vincent D'Onofrio does capture Hoffman's charisma and nuttiness -- and he's the only reason to resist the temptation to skip this exasperating movie.
– Lou Lumenick,
New York Post,

rotten:
A committed cast but an awkward script and no budget for production niceties.
– Bob Graham,
San Francisco Chronicle,

fresh:
There might have been a better, more involving method of telling Hoffman's story, but it is expressed with a firm sense of commitment to accuracy and authenticity.
– Kevin Thomas,
Los Angeles Times,
1 Jan 2000
rotten:
For those who regarded Hoffman as the Bugs Bunny of radicalized Amerika, he wasn't the person played by Vincent D'Onofrio in Steal This Movie, good intentions notwithstanding.
– Henry Cabot Beck,

rotten:
D'Onofrio's blunderbuss performance obliterates whatever wit and charm Hoffman had.
