Critics Consensus

Trying too hard to be clever in a Pulp Fiction kind of way, this film succumbs to a convoluted plot, overly stylized characters, and dizzying set design.

McGuigan has such a stylish eye that, even if you never quite care what's happening, you'll always be visually entertained.

Chicago Reader

With its diabolical ending, this is the movie equivalent of a crossword puzzle: fun, clever, and disposable.

A gaseous movie experience gets a solid DVD treatment.

…well worth a look for fans of McGuigan, Hartnett and particular those with a penchant for Bruce Willis in action mode…

Rated: 4/5

Bowling Green Daily News

A bloody romp full of rich characters and performances. Writer Jason Smilovic and director Paul McGuigan have created a great homage to film noir.

Rated: A-

Lucky Number Slevin is a very clever film, probably too clever for its own good.

Rated: 7/10

Josh Hartnett spent way too much time in a bath towel, and Ben Kingsley's camped-up performance was beneath him, but Lucy Liu was great and the plot was clever. Director Paul McGuigan makes good use of legends Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman; at the end of the day what we have here is a fun popcorn flick to kick back to. Great ending btw.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Love everything about this movie. The cast, acting, dialogue, soundtrack and aesthetic and entire vibe. Something magical was put together here and Rotten Tomatoes is so wrong on this one. This movie is a forever classic. Definitely a must-see.

As a revenge movie, it's fine. But how does he get in the car to kill the cop? That's doesn't make sense. Must have been lying in wait for a long time...

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
