Press Quotes

It's disturbing and challenging and will worry away at you... But, that said, it is its own genre, is peculiarly riveting, and is only 87 minutes.

     —Deborah Ross, The Spectator

This is a small film with a big payback, like a series of tableaux that illustrate how a mildmannered Mr Everyman can become viciously untamed.

     —Derek Malcolm, London Evening Standard

David Mamet's genius as a weaver of words and observer of human interaction is put on full display here ...

     —Felix Gonzalez Jr., DVD Review

Edmond is presented as the cold truth, but it's really just the truth of how the masculinist Mamet feels.

     —Rob Gonsalves, eFilmCritic.com

The film is well represented here. The garish lights of the street and neon from the shops all look good. Much of the film is given over to interiors in small rooms. It suits the dialogue heavy film to be so close to these folks.

     —AV Maniacs

William H. Macy gives a commanding performance in the titular role, and the journey is rarely boring for those who feel like tumbling down this rabbit hole.
