If you find the moral conversion of a militant lifelong bigot difficult to imagine, try the casting of the burly, fraying Mr. Sizemore as a romantic leading man.

Rated: 1.5/5

Los Angeles Times

A near complete exercise in mirthlessness and atonal satire, "Cellmates" is a sentence, all right.

Rated: 1/5

Sizemore certainly does his best to elevate the material, but every time the movie threatens to kick into gear, something generic or even sitcom-ish in its degree of cliche derails it.

Rated: 2.5/5.0

A slight but amiable prison-set satire, Cellmates surfs along mostly on the good fortune of its casting and sly peculiarity of its forced-odd-couple premise.

Rated: C+

The growth of a person's ability to understand others while shaped by a lifelong dogma which seeks to separate out and hate others, is rarely glimpsed. I was engrossed and moved while this film does just that.

Far better than expected. Satire comedy with a few unexpected twists. :-)
