Alissa Simon Variety A strong ensemble cast nails the tasty dialogue and increasingly frantic action without falling into shtick. Jun 20, 2024 Full Review Dwight Brown DwightBrownInk.com This movie can thank a breakout performance by the rapper Method Man (Wu-Tang Clan) for pulling it across the finish line. Rated: 3/4 Jun 17, 2024 Full Review Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter [Robbins and Weiner] know how to deliver a solid genre programmer and a few genuine laughs — especially a gag involving challah bread — but other parts of Bad Shabbos feel a bit too broad and formulaic, lacking a distinct voice. Jun 14, 2024 Full Review Paul Risker PopMatters Until the end, Robbins and Weiner thread together the hope of this reading with the cynicism of how people manipulate the levers of control and power, however humorously, to their advantage. Jun 28, 2024 Full Review Sherin Nicole AWFJ.org If one person behaved rationally in Bad Shabbos the movie would end after 20 minutes with a 911 call. But that wouldn’t be a NYC story, and this most definitely is. Jun 21, 2024 Full Review Julian Roman MovieWeb Bad Shabbos offers a darkly comic take on family dynamics during the Sabbath but falls flat with a predictable ending. Talented veteran actors add humor to the mix, but the film struggles to resonate beyond those familiar with Jewish traditions. Rated: 2/5 Jun 19, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
