Andrew Barker Variety 05/08/2009
Ugly and inert, Break strives for grindhouse thrills but lacks the verve and style that made those films so beloved, and is neither sincere nor intelligent enough to develop into anything more. Go to Full Review Glenn Whipp Los Angeles Times 05/01/2009
2/5
Break contains all the elements you'd expect from a hard-boiled Quentin Tarantino knockoff: the complicated hit men, the fetishes, the blood baths, not to mention the presence of Michael Madsen and David Carradine. Go to Full Review Tim Grierson L.A. Weekly 04/30/2009
What's most stunning about Break, beyond its pitifully amateurish production values and badly choreographed fight sequences, is that it actually has name actors in it. Go to Full Review Steve Ramos Boxoffice Magazine 05/08/2009
1/5
Only Madsen walks away from Break with his reputation unscathed, and this is if only because he's already something of a B-movie kingpin. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

11/22/2009 Cheesy, but entertaining film. Decent in a campy way, but otherwise a cliche crime movie. See more 09/20/2009 boring... just boring. See more 08/16/2009 plotwise not too bad. characters acting is nothing great.. names are not taht good... going for a big lebowski thing namewise but fails. ... its just meh aand a little corny at times See more 08/11/2009 Nice story, with a few interesting twists and turns, but you see them coming most of the time. But Frank Krueger ruined it by didn't know how to act naturally. David Carradine certainly puts a sparkle onto this otherwise barely watchable flick. See more 08/02/2009 rubbish! a waste of talent. madsen, carradine, durning, russo all wasted! See more 07/20/2009 It is not the greatest hit man movie of all time...But what would I know.
