Email this page to a friend   Critics Reviews Average Grade:   C Source Brief Review Grade* Atlanta Journal-Constitution Eleanor Ringel Gillespie "...Smokin' Aces isn't just pointless, fatuous and crass. It's also dated." more... D   Boston Globe Wesley Morris "...teases us with action-movie frivolity, then rubs our noses in grisly bloodletting..." more... C   Chicago Sun-Times Bill Zwecker "This is a film that works well because it stays true to the filmmaker's mission." more... A- Chicago Tribune Michael Phillips "Carnahan shoots everything for maximum slime- glamor..." more... C   E! Online Matt Stevens "...plays like regurgitated Tarantino--without the chunks of wit and originality." more... D+ Entertainment Weekly Owen Gleiberman "You can't take it seriously, but the movie is as lively as it is debased." more... B   filmcritic.com Chris Cabin "...quickly engages the viewer but just as quickly stuffs the plot with enough peripheral storylines to garner an Advil intermission." more... C   Hollywood Reporter Kirk Honeycutt "While the film bristles with cinematic verve, it also is as second-hand as an antique store." more... C   New York Post Lou Lumenick "...fun for roughly half an hour." more... D   New York Times A.O. Scott "...may not only be dumb in itself, but also the cause of dumbness in others." more... D- ReelViews James Berardinelli "...a vague and unsuccessful attempt to bring together a bunch of offbeat, unrelated characters in a situation where a bloody resolution is inescapable." more... C   Rolling Stone Peter Travers "...shamelessly and unapologetically a guy movie." more... B   San Francisco Chronicle Mick LaSalle "...Smokin' Aces has humor and flash, and there's always something going on." more... B   Seattle Post-Intelligencer Sean Axmaker "Smokin' Aces isn't a story, it's a premise with a madhouse of characters flung into a collision course that ends at the same finish line." more... C   USA Today Claudia Puig "...suffers from desperate wannabe syndrome." more... D   * Yahoo! Movies converts each critic's published rating into a letter grade.
