Smokin' Aces Ratings & Reviews
Seattle Times
Mark Rahner
None of the numerous, sketchily drawn characters adds up to much to care about in the short running time.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Carnahan creates a spectacle of nihilism, with a number of scenes of carnage, including a shootout in an elevator. This vision is no mere gesture, as it is for, say, Guy Ritchie.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Smokin Aces is a Viagra suppository for compulsive action fetishists and a movie that may not only be dumb in itself, but also the cause of dumbness in others.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
Violence is spread throughout the film, and some of it is entertaining, I have to admit. But the climax at Buddy's Tahoe penthouse is Tarantino on speed.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
It's ludicrous, but not as ludicrous as the ending -- an exhausting game of Twister that'll leave you feeling stupid or cheated or both.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Meaningless violence incarnate, a pointed mix of laughs and wanton death; and yes, that might actually mean something, but precisely what is never clear.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
A grindhouse-inspired concoction that may not contain a shred of originality, but it is executed with unbridled bombast and glee.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Impersonal hackwork by someone who is bending over backwards to sell out and become the new Michael Bay.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Anyone with a brain bigger than those of the Tremors will have figured out the big Usual Suspects twists that are designed to give all this some emotional payoff.
Austin Chronicle
Marrit Ingman
Half the time the movie wants to be balls-out weird, and it is. But the other half -- the half with the good guys -- is plodding procedural fare.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
It wants to be a Tarantino-esque dark comedy about gun-slinging, substance-abusing lowlifes. But instead it's a convoluted, slap-happy, humorless bloodfest.
UGO
Brian Tallerico
The biggest and most unfortunate problem with Smokin' Aces is the complete lack of anyone to root for or even against.
TIME Magazine
Richard Schickel
We just sit there numbly, awaiting the next sensation and trying, without notable success, to comprehend the preposterous backstory.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Did Carnahan think these sickening scenes would give Smokin' Aces a moral complexity that's generally absent from this genre? I think they make the picture seem even more morally bankrupt.
Miami Herald
Peter Debruge
The hyper-stylized violence isn't nearly as senseless as the narrative bits in between. And the 'twist' employs the same sleight-of-hand as The Usual Suspects.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Carnahan hasn't really stepped too far out of the standard genre box here, and while that is unfortunate he's at least stepped into it with enough style, grace and intelligent nuance I can't help but be at least partially impressed.
Dallas Morning News
Tom Maurstad
This movie is meant to be watched the way a video game is played: just go from scene to scene and start blasting the minute you walk through the door.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
Sadly, more than an hour of this movie is given over to talking. And not the wink-wink Quentin Tarantino kind, either.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
A flashy, nasty, hyper-violent story.
Slate
Dana Stevens
A gruesome Cannonball Run with Piven flesh as the trophy, Smokin' Aces is a depressingly nihilistic entry in the Tarantino/Guy Ritchie/Ocean's Eleven caper genre.
