Critics' reviews
- "Give credit where credit is due: Ritchie and screenwriter Steven McKay know how to turn their crowd-pleasing tricks. It's one sucker punch after another, but you'd have to be a rock not to fall for it."
- "Steven McKay has written an intelligently twisted and surprisingly witty screenplay."
