Review For The Company You Keep |
You can't help but applaud the effort, even as it falls short. Rick Groen-Globe and Mail
Redford the director keeps things moving smoothly, avoiding too many lengthy monologues while still getting the point across ... Tom Long-Detroit News
A drama that's more than a look at what happened to a generation of socially aware hippies whose new drug of choice is likely Lipitor. Linda Barnard-Toronto Star
What gets revealed should rattle, but it doesn't. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
You wish the movie were a little snappier, but Redford doesn't do snap; slow down with it, and enjoy the chase. Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times
Directed in steady fashion by Redford, The Company You Keep manages to keep its multiple strands of plot - and the people caught in them - from collapsing in a jumble of confusion. Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer
A tougher work might have seemed provocatively relevant in the tragic context of current events, but this film has a muted nostalgia for the days when bomb-tossing students had easy-to-pronounce names and might grow up to be as cleancut as Robert Redford. John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
An old-fashioned political drama that's well-intentioned and heartfelt. Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Clearly, Redford has no trouble drawing talent; if he's ever interested in remaking Meteor or Midnight in Paris, he's halfway there. Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing
Robert Redford -- who once was an active liberal -- is now a tired capitalist. He's also a worn-out egotist. Tony Macklin-tonymacklin.net
[Redford] still manages to tell an interesting story of family painted against a political backdrop. It's not going to spark any great movements, but it is worth a sit in at the local theater. Rick Bentley-Fresno Bee
Redford's direction feels tighter and and less ruminative than it has in years, and his acting is still marked by a kind of intelligent alertness. Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
No matter how much slack you cut it, The Company You Keep never quite lives up to expectation. Katherine Monk-Canada.com
This chase film combines elements of the thriller and newspaper procedural to create a contemporary saga about political idealism, stone-cold realities, and the repercussions of past deeds on future innocents. Marjorie Baumgarten-Austin Chronicle
The acting company Robert Redford keeps in The Company You Keep doesn't get any better. Movies rarely do either. Gary Wolcott-Tri-City Herald
What with a cast that includes Robert Redford, Julie Christie, Nick Nolte, and Susan Sarandon, this might've been the most star-studded production of the year had it been made in 1975. Jason Anderson-The Grid
It tends to sag a touch in its third act, but it's a solidly engaging thriller thanks mostly to its ridiculously talented cast. Mike Scott-Times-Picayune
Although the movie is structured as a thriller, there's no urgency or suspense. Josh Bell-Las Vegas Weekly
Whether RR's too old, as many have suggested, for the more thriller-ish elements here, there's no doubt that he's very fine and still seriously charismatic, and that Lem Dobbs' screenplay tackles weighty issues in a compellingly 'grey area' fashion. David 'Mad Dog' Bradley-Rip It Up
It's like the "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" of political thrillers. Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI)
It's a big thing done in mediocre fashion, with a mystifying contempt for the audience's intelligence and faith. Joe Gross-Austin American-Statesman
Where's a Sidney when you really need one? Either Pollack or Lumet could have easily injected Robert Redford's old-fashioned thriller with some much needed snap and suspense. Jeff Meyers-Metro Times (Detroit, MI)
Overall, this is a film that works pretty well. It has its kinks, but thanks to a top-notch cast and an intriguing mystery that keeps the audience entertained, it ends up being worth the two-hour investment. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com
