Critic Reviews of "True Confessions"
Washington PostDecember 18, 2015Des is another solitary soul, but perhaps he's the most subtle and accessible solitary De Niro has yet embodied -- a man whose isolation draws you closer instead of giving you the willies.
TIME MagazineMarch 07, 2011Two exciting, dangerous actors have little to do: Duvall spends too much time pacing and waiting; De Niro's big scene has him hanging up his vestments.
VarietyMarch 26, 2009Given the powerhouse topline casting combo and provocative theme, True Confessions has to be chalked up as something of a disappointment.
Time OutJune 24, 2006Numerous vital characters are dropped and the case-solving stripped of its complexity, with the resulting film over-linear and one-dimensional.
Chicago Sun-TimesOctober 23, 2004True Confessions contains scenes that are just about as good as scenes can be. Then why does the movie leave us disoriented and disappointed, and why does the ending fail dismally?
New York TimesAugust 30, 2004Quite simply it's one of the most entertaining, most intelligent and most thoroughly satisfying commercial American films in a very long time.
TV GuideMarch 07, 2011A fascinating film that exposes the dark underside of the Catholic Church and fixes it firmly in the seedy, corrupt world of film noir.
Old School ReviewsFebruary 02, 2007Acting compensates for disappointing ending
Fantastica DailyOctober 21, 2005An atmospheric, always-intriguing mystery that works equally well as a perceptive character study. One of the very best films of the 1980s.
Spirituality and PracticeJanuary 30, 2002Robert Duvall puts in a top-drawer performance in this crime drama mixing sleuthing and sacraments, crime and confession - one of the best films of 1981.
