Puncture Ratings & Reviews
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
"Puncture" has the unusual problem of being almost too intriguing; its based-on-true-events story seems to cry out for documentary treatment.
Boston Globe
Ethan Gilsdorf
"Puncture'' is based on an actual court case. But is this a story best served by focusing on the legal battle or the arc of Mike's flawed hero?
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Evans works so hard to look like a drug addict that it undermines the character's effort not to look like one.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
It's a thoughtful entry in the growing subgenre of whistle-blower dramas.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
Even with a very-good lead performance, isn't memorable enough to recommend.
Time Out Chicago
Matt Singer
Evans's soulful performance keeps Puncture from overdosing on righteous indignation.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Does a commendable job of merging its David vs. Goliath elements with Weiss' personal problems, doing justice to the fact that "Puncture" is based on true people and an actual case.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Electrifying in the role, Evans reminds me of other great out-of-control druggies played by Al Pacino and Nicolas Cage.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
This true-life film is a likable oddity: a rambling, low-budget Erin Brockovich with a cokehead hero.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Evans is an electrifying presence, working overtime to save the day.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
"Puncture" presents a compelling story, but it's also difficult to sympathize with Evans' doomed main character, no matter how vividly he's acted.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
[It] possesses all the right ingredients: an idealistic young lawyer, a corrupt corporate villain and a sympathetic victim. It just fails to assemble them into a compelling whole.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
The picture benefits from its performances, notably Evans' roguish appeal as a guy simultaneously driven and destructive.
AV Club
Tasha Robinson
There's something perverse about the ultra-conventional way directors/brothers Adam and Mark Kassen handle their unconventional material in the based-on-a-true-story drama Puncture.
Observer
Rex Reed
Like any good cautionary tale, Puncture tells a suspenseful story responsibly, creating food for thought and leaving the audience both enlightened and entertained.
Village Voice
Nick Pinkerton
Puncture is proudly "Based on a True Story." As is so often the case, this means an indifference to "true" human relationships in favor of crusading self-righteousness.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
The film is chock-a-block with extraordinary performances and no one will fault the filmmaking either. This is a well-made movie, make no mistake. It just suffers from a dysfunctional hero.
Variety
Ronnie Scheib
Working from a fact-based script, tyro helmers Adam and Mark Kassen fashion an impassioned expose on the health-care industry full of strange-but-true incongruities in Puncture.
Slant Magazine
Simon Abrams
If you like your films like you like your airport fiction, then Puncture should be right up your alley.
