Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Robert Altman the up-and- down director meets John Grisham the constant mediocrity. Just where, in our hypothetical picture, should we place that unlikely scene?
– Rick Groen,

fresh:
Altman had a fine time composing difficult shots, through screens, bushes and sheets of rain, and Chungwei's images, sometimes delicate, sometimes harsh, stick with you long after you've forgotten their context.
– Jack Mathews,

fresh:
If you like movies more than you do John Grisham, you can leave the story behind and listen to the filmmaking master class that Altman conducts on the screen.
– Jeff Millar,

fresh:
There's great pleasure in watching a movie in which the director has thought out everything beforehand.
– Mick LaSalle,

fresh:
The Gingerbread Man isn't any more profound than other thrillers, but the distinctive talents of director Robert Altman make it a lot more potent.
