Reviews
|
Salon -
An extraordinary and original creation. It belongs alongside "Amores Perros" and "Memento" on a shortlist of 2001's most exciting revelations.
|
|
Village Voice -
There are long stretches in Sexy Beast that are so exhilarating it feels churlish to dwell on its flaws.
|
|
The New York Times -
He's (Kingsley) pure violence, a sociopath who radiates menace even while sitting perfectly still mouthing pleasantries.
|
|
Philadelphia Inquirer -
Glazer has a daring sense of story structure that ratchets up the suspense, and his sense for sardonic black comedy is unerring.
|
|
New York Daily News -
Noir has never been this bright.
