'R Xmas Ratings & Reviews
Village Voice
Amy Taubin
I'd welcome another chance to see Abel Ferrara's R-Xmas, a vertiginous, anti-Sopranos riff on middle-class drug dealers...Ferrara's uncharacteristic restraint and understatement registered as a unique accomplishment.
Stream on Demand
Sean Axmaker
Inspired by a supposedly true story by Cassandra De Jesus, this low-key drama is prime Abel Ferrara territory: a New York tale rumbling with irony and ambiguity.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
De Matteo ... boasts enough intelligence, attitude and ferocity to ignite even the most mundane of moments.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
[This] dark, woozy Christmas movie is one of Ferrara's best films.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
An undeveloped story.
Film Journal International
Eric Monder
Can't quite deliver the goods, but it still provides a few highs along the way.
Apollo Guide
Ryan Cracknell
Highlighted by a gritty style and an excellent cast, it's better than one might expect when you look at the list of movies starring Ice-T in a major role.
Film Threat
Chris Gore
The heart of the film is the drop dead sexy Drea De Matteo who, as the mother and real head of the family, commands every scene.
Oregonian
Shawn Levy
It's hard to believe that something so short could be so flabby.
Film Freak Central
Bill Chambers
Spare yet audacious...
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Ferrara's best film in years.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Once Ice-T sticks his mug in the window of the couple's BMW and begins haranguing the wife in bad stage dialogue, all credibility flies out the window.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Ferrara's strongest and most touching movie of recent years.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Ferrara directs the entire film with the kind of detachment that makes any given frame look like a family's custom-made Christmas card.
L.A. Weekly
Daniel Fienberg
R Xmas offers a poetic and profane ambiguity that's vintage Ferrara.
Los Angeles Times
Manohla Dargis
Admirers of director Abel Ferrara may be relieved that his latest feature, R Xmas, marks a modest if encouraging return to form.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
What could have been right at home as a nifty plot line in Steven Soderbergh's Traffic fails to arrive at any satisfying destination.
