Q&A Ratings & Reviews
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...deliberate yet thoroughly watchable...
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
Q & A is testimony to the validity of the old adage: a good story, when well told, can never be told too many times.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Lumet pulls no punches showing a contemporary NYC plagued by racism, violence, crime, tribalism, cronyism, and corruption.
Moviehole
Caffeinated Clint
Another tour-de-force for Lumet
Fantastica Daily
Chuck O'Leary
Sidney Lumet's third film about corruption in the NYC police department is a gritty, gripping and profane thriller with a powerhouse performance by an intimidating Nick Nolte.
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
Underrated crime drama with a great performance by Nick Nolte.
Apollo Guide
Wesley Lovell
The type of film that wastes a good afternoon with delicious performances and weak writing.
Capital Times (Madison, WI)
Rob Thomas
A gritty and morally complex cop thriller featuring a haymaker of a performance from Nolte.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
''Q and A'' is most memorable for its performances, beginning with Mr. Nolte's.
Film Freak Central
Bill Chambers
A ramshackle police drama that resides in the upper-tier of Lumet's ouevre.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
Unfortunately, Lumet isn't the brawny social commentator he would like to be -- he's a Jimmy Breslin manque'.

Mark R. Leeper
It is nice to see a film that does not talk down to its audience even if perhaps it goes a little far in the other direction.
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
Nolte is hilariously bad and good at the same time as a corrupt cop, while Hutton is the earnest DA trying to bust him.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Chris Hicks
"Q&A" is worth a look as a serious film by an uncompromising filmmaker.
Entertainment Weekly
Q&A is a major film by one of our finest mainstream directors. As both a portrait of modern-day corruption and an act of sheer storytelling bravura, it is not to be missed.
