One of the cuddliest, cutest movies you'll ever see about mobsters and murderers.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

You know a sequel isn't working when, ten minutes into the movie, a voice inside your head starts screaming, 'Please make it stop!'
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Rotten

James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Rotten
The movie feels more like a cavalcade of personalities than anything resembling a story.
