      Steve D Great cast bad script. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/10/23 Full Review Vera A It was a tad longer then it should of been, all and all I thought this was a good movie about a fathers secrets, that came out in these hidden letters and in the end lead to tragic loss of family. Charlie is an ass, daddy boy will never fess up to it! I'm glad I ran across this and watched. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/23 Full Review Audience Member If you want to see what bad acting is then watch this movie...just awful performances by otherwise decent actors. Juliette Lewis had the only performance worth mentioning....oh and that puppy at the end. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/21 Full Review ashley h Crooked Hearts is a disappointing film. It is about a very troubled family beset from all sides by conflict, arguments and scandal. Vincent D'Onofrio and Peter Berg give terrible performances. The screenplay is badly written. Michael Bortman did a horrible job directing this movie. I was not impressed with this motion picture. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Good cast in slow-moving drama. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Engaging, character-driven drama about a seemingly close-knit family forced to face some ugly truths. The fine ensemble is led by Peter Berg and features Vincent D'Onofrio, Noah Wyle and Juliette Lewis as his siblings, Jen Jason Leigh as his girlfriend and Peter Coyote and Cindy Pickett as his parents. Definitely worth a look. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
