Hate Crime Ratings & Reviews
Film Journal International
David Noh
Call it too much fuel to the fire in a misguided effort to bring home the tragedy of gay hate crimes.
Filmcritic.com
Don Willmott
deserves praise, even the political viewpoints lack any subtlety whatsoever.
New Times
Luke Y. Thompson
One day, a truly original screenplay will be written in which churchgoing, beer-drinking Southerners will be portrayed as something other than evil hypocrites.
eFilmCritic.com
Peter Sobczynski
Well-meaning but deeply flawed.
L.A. Weekly
Ernest Hardy
The film never rises above its cry now-avenge later Lifetime Channel sensibilities.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The portrait of the Boyds is painted by Tommy Stovall, the film's writer and director, with such broad and venomous strokes that if the gay characters had been portrayed in the same way, the film would rightly be seen as bigoted.
TheMovieChicks.com
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone
It takes a turn toward vigilante justice, Texas-style, where everybody has a gun. They trade a hate crime for a crime of hate, and that mixed message overshadows the potential of this film.
Dallas Morning News
Mario Tarradell
... a flawed film that frequently tries to rise above standard TV dramas of the week.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
A well-meaning but hopelessly stilted melodrama, Hate Crime sacrifices good intentions with its mediocrity of execution.
TV Guide
Ken Fox
Well-intentioned but convoluted thriller.
Variety
Lael Loewenstein
What is not entirely clear is what Hate Crime adds to the equation that hasn't been done before.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
On the surface, Hate Crime may seem like a movie about violence rooted in religious bigotry, but underneath it's a poorly disguised argument for vigilantism.
Village Voice
Jorge Morales
When the plot gets lost in irrational revenge fantasies, you'll wish you had stayed home watching reruns.
Film Threat
Felix Vasquez Jr.
While Stovall's study of hate crimes is well acted, and with the right intentions, it can never get off the ground and feel like a unique dissection, and still comes off as an episode of a cop show in the end.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
First-time Sedona filmmaker Tommy Stovall can't bear to part with certain scenes, even if they lengthen his film and send the story in circles.
