Mad Dog and Glory Reviews

It still is nutty enough to be entertaining.

| Original Score: B- | Oct 25, 2024

Robert De Niro has rarely shown such judicious acting restraint as he does here, with extremely moving results.

In Mad Dog and Glory, Murray plays not the hero but a charismatic, albeit wacko, gangster and loan shark...

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 2, 2022

Tonally, it's not the film that got Scorsese's attention, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, but set alongside any of McNaughton's pictures, [all] are formally of a piece: rhythmic, economical and quietly urgent.

| Original Score: 8/10 | May 1, 2019

The movie isn't exactly laugh-out-loud funny, but it does have a light spirit like a comedy would.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 7, 2019

These are all talented people, but on this project they seem oddly divided, within themselves as well as from each other.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 17, 2009

An edgy romantic drama that never quite jells, but has enough moments of humor and/or charm to make it worth seeing.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 5, 2008

The film's main sin seems to be its indecision as to whether it is a black comedy, a satire, a thriller or a love story. It's none of the above. Just tedious.

| Oct 5, 2008

A terrific little comedy, as well as a showcase for screenwriter Richard Price's incomparable ear for dialogue.

| Original Score: B+ | Apr 9, 2007

An original if incoherent fable about the intricate relationships between a cop, a girl, and a gangster whose tone shifts radically from scene to scene, unable to reconcile between the story's softer love elements and its harder urban edges.

| Original Score: B- | Aug 21, 2006

De Niro seems committed to the part of the sensitive loner, while Murray all but succeeds in mixing smooth and sinister, heartfelt and hot-tempered.

DeNiro can play a complete wimp and Murray can play a heavy--who knew?

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | May 26, 2003

An almost unconscionably enjoyable movie that plays like something conceived by a contemporary, furiously hip Damon Runyon.
