Hard Eight Ratings & Reviews
- partyk1d243 december 2025So many good actors
- Joe Murgia8 oktober 2025Hoffman nearly steals the movie in a 3-minute scene, great film.
- James Saenz2 oktober 2025“never ignore a man’s courtesy.” promising neo-noir start with an interesting midpoint development that ultimately leads to a mostly flat back half. philip baker hall carries the narrative to its conclusion with a stellar performance, but he’s not the most memorable philip in this picture either. i also don’t quite know how to come to terms with how the film depicts women, especially with clementine’s relationship to john.
- russrev1ews21 september 2025Simple and thoughtful examination of fatherhood under complicated circumstances.
