Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
This fresh and interesting story about a tight-knit clan of Irish grifters in the rural South who make their living scamming is a ''con men on the road'' picture all the more welcome during a season of junky action thrillers...
– Lisa Schwarzbaum,
Entertainment Weekly,
6 Jul 2010
fresh:
Eastwood's longtime lenser Jack Green makes a decent feature debut with a well-acted comedy-adventure that in its good moments recalls such classics as The Sting and The Grifters.
– Emanuel Levy,
Variety,
4 Jan 2007
rotten:
Though competently directed by Clint Eastwood's camerman Jack Green, matters unravel when the film ratchets up the tension and become entirely implausible at the close.
– Geoff Andrew,
Time Out,
24 Jun 2006
fresh:
This is a film about people who get by depending on antisocial skills and outlaw wit, and Green and writer Jim McGlynn clearly empathize with their independent spirit and lifestyle, even if they don't completely approve.
– Richard Harrington,
Washington Post,
22 Jan 2002
rotten:
The film is just there on screen, better than watching a clock, better than contemplating mortality, an OK experience. There are movies like this. No sense in pretending otherwise.
