Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Francois Velle's local crime drama is so earnest, it feels unkind to tell the truth -- which is that we've seen this story, told in just this way, too many times before.
– Elizabeth Weitzman,

rotten:
The Narrows is too riddled with cliches reaching past Scorsese all the way to Cagney flicks to be any more effective than a mowed-down capo.
– Robert Abele,
Los Angeles Times,

rotten:
Until it implodes with preposterous plot manipulations, The Narrows can be appreciated as the film equivalent of a reasonably palatable pasta dish concocted from a familiar recipe and served in a no-frills restaurant.

rotten:
Imagine Mean Streets with less grit, unconvincing casting and none of Scorsese's tortured Catholic guilt.

Serviceably enjoyable, like cold pizza but little more.
