Violet & Daisy Ratings & Reviews
Brooks Carbo

Good cast but overall it was hard to get into. Definitely not a complicated plot but rather silly writing. Even still with Gandolfini, Trejo and Saoirse Ronan I still couldn't escape into the movie. I realize it was supposed to be a little silly and not an intense, serious drama. Just my opinion. I can see where others may like it more than I did.
Chicago Sun-Times
Matt Zoller Seitz
A thriller that might as well have been released in 1996, when everybody and their brother and their sister and their cousin twice-removed was trying to be Quentin Tarantino ...
Monsters and Critics
Ron Wilkinson
A fluffy excuse for random violence is saved by ethereal performances by Saoirse Ronan and James Gandolfini.

Robert Levin
A movie can stick with genre basics if it has fun doing so, but Violet & Daisy lacks the freewheeling spirit of great B movies.

You can almost see the moment when the super-talented Saoirse Ronan checks out in terms of character and I think James Gandolfini gave up before the end of rehearsal. I just felt bad for Alexis Bledel.
Chicago Sun-Times
Mary Houlihan
Of course, the violence is cringe-worthy and, at times, over the top. But view this as a modern comic book/fairy tale, and it's easier to accept this saga of girls with guns and the life lessons they eventually confront.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
The film's subtle visual allure is all but stamped out by the impression that the director tries too hard to be an idiosyncratic auteur in the vein of Quentin Tarantino.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
A rather dull affair.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
We don't feel the weight and menace of death, nor the volatile emotions of youth, and have nothing to respond to beyond the spectacle of girls with guns.
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
Ronan is good at shifting between killer and kid. But it's impossible not to wish she would once again have a role that matches her talent.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
A frequently off-putting film about two teenage assassins.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Claude Peck
The script might have pushed harder, and included more incident and less of the rote psychologizing that bogs things down in the final reel.
Film.com
William Goss
A candy-colored offering of bloodshed and banter so self-conscious that it alienates the viewer early and often.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Violet and Daisy's cutesy chatter, and violence set to great old songs, are the movie's reasons for being. Which ultimately isn't enough ammo.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Fletcher must have thought the dark comedy would indemnify him against the cascading illogic of the plot.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
Talky and artificial, it moves like a sort of lobotomized Hal Hartley movie ...
Observer
Rex Reed
Artsy-fartsy gibberish executed with a staggering incoherence that smacks of desperation.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
The key relationships are well drawn, if not especially revealing of anything human, and director Fletcher sometimes dares some welcome absurdity.
Slant Magazine
R. Kurt Osenlund
A twisted, spirited exercise in stark juxtaposition, a grindhouse fairy tale of sorts that pairs the sugary sweet with the nastily violent.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Geoffrey Fletcher's directorial debut manages to be precious in a whole different way, sadly far-removed from the approach he took adapting the novel Push by Sapphire.
