Rounders Ratings & Reviews
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
In fighting to show the psychological complexities in Mike that the script ignores, Damon plays it like a rounder instead of a grinder. This kid still has surprises up his sleeve.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Though Damon is an actor who's flatly impossible not to root for, the longer this film lasts the less patience we have to stay with him.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Rounders has little trouble maintaining our interest, it's just that the stakes are disappointingly meager.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
No energy!
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
It's a movie of character and milieu, both of which it evokes brilliantly.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
The most vivid and most enjoyable movies immerse us in a world, and show us how that world works. The screenplay by David Levien and Brian Koppelman does that; Dahl's direction closes the deal.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
The wholesome pup's poker face alone, however, hardly accounts for the film's failure to thrill. Damon's character doesn't really have that much stake in the story's outcome.
Variety
Todd McCarthy
Intermittently engaging but dramatically slack.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Gretchen Mol, Edward Norton, John Turturro, Martin Landau, and Famke Janssen costar; they're all pretty good, but not good enough to make this 1998 feature worth seeing.
CNN.com
Paul Tatara
Rounders' script is pretty shabby going. Well, not shabby, really, just simplistic.
San Jose Mercury News
Julie Hinds
Norton's acting and Dahl's gift for sustaining a tone save Rounders from completely floundering.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
A promising cast can't rescue a script without surprises!
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
A disappointing mediocrity.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
According to director John Dahl's Rounders, professional poker players are very, very interesting people -- for about five minutes.
Detroit News
Tom Long
A sure bet!
New York Times
Janet Maslin
Mischievously entertaining!
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Rounders cheerfully buys into compulsive gambling!
