Imagine Quentin Tarantino if he got his brow lowered.
Stephen Cole, Globe and Mail

Bold prediction: At his current glacial pace of progress, Troy Duffy is likely to write and direct the great Irish-American payback movie sometime in the year 2049.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star

It's as if writer/director Troy Duffy threw every idea he had at the wall, creating a very messy wall.
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
Rotten
Writer-director Troy Duffy needs to YouTube himself a new idea or two, because his variations on themes provided by Quentin Tarantino and Guy "RocknRolla" Ritchie are pure mold.
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune
