Broodingly effective as a crime drama because it's driven by family dynamics as much as the mechanics of transgression.

Top critics, in their words
Fresh
A somber piece of film poetry about men so invested in a rigid notion of honor and revenge they become trapped in an endless loop of violence.
Tirdad Derakhshani, Philadelphia Inquirer
Fresh
Tales of Italians and organized crime are, quite frankly, starting to wear thin after years of overuse. But "Black Souls" has a deep and startling soulfulness that, despite its shocking conclusion, is profoundly moving.
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post
Fresh
It may not quite have the explosive charm of some of the classics, but Black Souls is an elegant, unsettling addition to the gangster-movie canon. Get on its unique wavelength, and you may find it transfixing.
Bilge Ebiri, New York Magazine/Vulture

"Black Souls" is an ominous, well-acted portrait of an ingrown feudal society of violence, retaliation and deadly machismo.
Stephen Holden, New York Times
