Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It's pretty winning for a long way, reminding us that everything in life is a kind of gamble, and if you don't play, you'll never win.
– Eleanor Ringel Gillespie,
Atlanta Journal-Constitution,
15 Jan 2004
rotten:
A movie without a compass, switching pace and direction as haphazardly as a caffeinated SUV driver on a cellphone.
– Rick Groen,
Globe and Mail,
16 Jan 2004
fresh:
Kramer has gotten strong performances from his cast (Baldwin is particularly good as the strangely likable, but still horrible, casino owner).
– Rene Rodriguez,
Miami Herald,

fresh:
A B-movie in the best sense: Unpretentious. Raffish. Just trashy enough to be six kinds of fun without making you hate yourself in the morning.
– Jay Boyar,
Orlando Sentinel,
16 Jan 2004
rotten:
In reconstructing Macy's equal-opportunity loser persona as a romantic winner, The Cooler forgets what made its star so winning in the first place.
