Critic Reviews
-
Sheila Benson, Los Angeles Times
Every indulgence, including a two hour and 14 minute running time, is on display.
-
Variety Staff, Variety
A handsomely produced, mostly riveting, but ultimately overlong and overindulgent gangster picture.
-
Janet Maslin, New York Times
Mr. Oldman gives an electrifying performance that both establishes a tragic, terrifying character and explains why that character's world is such a perilous place.
-
Rita Kempley, Washington Post
Penn's affecting performance, a strong and silent struggle with his warring emotions, is hard pressed to offset Oldman's shrill shenanigans.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
What's best about "State of Grace" is what's unique to it - the twisted vision of the Oldman character, who lives in a world of evil and betrayal and has somehow thought himself around to the notion that he is doing the right thing.
