Reviews


70
Variety - Dennis Harvey
Not everything here works, including some lead casting. But this daylight noir should please viewers willing to roll along with a crime meller more interested in character quirks than action thrills.
68
TheWrap - Steve Pond
While it’s hard to watch Arkansas and not see its debt to the Coen brothers, Duke finds a voice of his own in quiet, deadpan absurdities and southern-fried eccentricities.
67
The Film Stage - Jared Mobarak
The film bills itself as a suspense thriller due to the predicament Kyle and Swin must eventually try to escape, but it works best as a comedy using that narrative drama to entertain regardless of the stakes.
67
The A.V. Club - Noel Murray
While Arkansas is a promising and often very entertaining first feature, Duke doesn’t combine these borrowed ingredients—excellent though they are—into a fully realized original story, with its own personality.
63
Slant Magazine - Unnamed
The film’s insistence on keeping the stakes low throughout is probably its key strength.
