Critic Reviews
-
Gregory Kirschling, Entertainment Weekly
Curtis Hall keeps slipping in surprising social and emotional flavorings rarely found in [this] genre.
-
Bill Gallo, Village Voice
For its ever shifting attitudes toward men, women, and murder, Waist Deep is one of the sloppiest movies ever to reach the screen.
-
Jack Mathews, New York Daily News
Nothing in this story is remotely realistic, and the target audience for urban dramas -- teenage boys -- won't know what to make of its mushy romantic center.
-
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Waist Deep is a hip, hard genre picture that begins well, but quickly gets in over its head.
-
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Sometimes excessiveness and implausibility are virtues in disguise. Movies this enjoyable don't come about by accident.
