Critic Reviews of "Hounddog"
Steven Winn San Francisco ChronicleOctober 31, 2008The whole distasteful mess is sunk up to its neck in a brew of Southern Gothic atmosphere and hocus-pocus sentimentality.
Michael Phillips Chicago TribuneOctober 18, 2008Only Fanning's emotional honesty makes Hounddog watchable.
Peter Travers Rolling StoneSeptember 26, 2008If there's a Southern-gothic cliché (oh, those snakes!) that writer-director Deborah Kampmeier misses, I don't know it.
David Hiltbrand Philadelphia InquirerSeptember 25, 2008A slow procession of degradation and suffering, Hounddog is like a tall glass of bitter iced tea.
Amy Nicholson I.E. WeeklySeptember 19, 2008The only lesson is that if you're a child of the south, you better get yourself adopted by Yankees.
Stephen Whitty Newark Star-LedgerSeptember 19, 2008The latest wallow in regional cliche and stereotype.
Michael Sragow Baltimore SunOctober 31, 2008Hounddog boasts a distinctive wood-and-emerald look and several crackerjack performances.
Brian Orndorf BrianOrndorf.comOctober 02, 2008Fanning resembles an acting robot: stick a quarter in her head and she'll dial up any reaction in the book, absent the needed gravitas.
Fred Topel Can MagazineSeptember 26, 2008We're seeing Fanning in soaking wet white underwear playing in the river, gyrating like Elvis. That's worse that an exploitative rape scene. This is just the filmmakers deciding to depict salacious behavior.
Frank Swietek One Guy's OpinionSeptember 24, 2008It's hard to take this wild mixture of sledgehammer symbolism, period Southern Gothic, race-conscious uplift and cautionary coming-of-age parable seriously, despite Fanning's remarkable poise.
Ken Fox TV GuideSeptember 19, 2008A handsomely produced but unintentionally risible film that mistakes high grotesquerie for high gothic.
