Critic Reviews of "The Paperboy"
NewsdayOctober 26, 2012"The Paperboy" is one of those rare examples where you might wish the movie was less faithful to the book.
Denver PostOctober 19, 2012Yes, it's a dizzying stew set to boil.
Globe and MailOctober 19, 2012The Paperboy is southern Gothic wallowing in the swamp of low camp. And if the wallowing were deliberate, this might have been hugely funny.
Toronto StarOctober 18, 2012The Paperboy bears some promise as a good-bad movie, but it unfolds as a bad-bad one.
Seattle TimesOctober 11, 2012It's a movie that seems to have a mild form of heatstroke: it's blurry, as if filmed long ago, and feverish, and the story wanders all over the place as if lost in a bayou. When it's over, you want to wipe your brow.
Philadelphia InquirerOctober 11, 2012The Paperboy is over-the-top every which way you look.
New StatesmanNovember 09, 2016Daniels turns out to be the ideal director for a film about the tendency of desire to turn sane minds to guacamole.
National Newspaper Publishers AssociationNovember 09, 2016[Daniels] can't find his directorial bearings.
Bitch MediaMay 10, 2016The Paperboy is not all bad, but it isn't all good either. I'm not quite sure what Daniels wanted his audience to walk away with.
Movie TalkAugust 04, 2013There's something undeniably compelling about the cast's daringly go-for-broke performances... but Daniels fragments the narrative and throws in so many tricksy directorial touches that the whole thing becomes an annoyingly indulgent mess.
EricDSnider.comJuly 21, 2013The sweaty, lurid, self-serious nonsense is hard to take seriously, but I'll say this much for the film: it ain't boring.
