Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
Despite a super-dark noir plot and respectable cast, "Deadfall" is a thriller that never quite delivers on its promise.
Walter V. Addiego, San Francisco Chronicle
Fresh
Perhaps the best thing about "Deadfall" is the lifelike messiness of its ending. A couple of the characters have a lot of explaining to do, and this is one case where a sequel might be in order.
Calvin Wilson, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Rotten
It's sort of like "Fargo," only with a higher body count and without the wood chipper.
Soren Anderson, Seattle Times

Deadfall is fast and fatalistic ...
