      Dom Hemingway

      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Jude Law is clearly having fun in Dom Hemingway's title role, but viewers may find this purposely abrasive gangster dramedy isn't quite as enjoyable from the other side of the screen.

      Alec B If the filmmakers had stuck with the crazed energy (best displayed in the hilarious opening monologue) instead of awkwardly mashing it together with your standard redemption arch, the film might have been great. Still, its amusing enough and Jude Law's performance, which I could only described as "scenery devouring", is one you won't soon forget. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/10/23 Full Review Cole J This movie was so good. Hilarious also. Jude law kills it with a surprisingly emotional performance for the character. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/30/23 Full Review isla s First off, this film is brash and features some criminal (and I mean CRIMINAL) London accents, mainly from the titular character, played by Jude Law. I watched it as it was recommended on another website and I saw it starred Law and Richard E Grant, who I like as actors, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Its bright, cocky, loud, ludicrous, unapologetic etc. you get the idea. Its not un-entertaining but its no great shakes either, as it were. Its certainly an easy, leave your brain at the door type watch, think 'The Brothers Grimsby' and/or the flop that was 'Mortdecai'. Apart from the titular characters strong cockney accent, there's also a cringe-y Russian accent/dialect featured. The film features a lot of strong language and many sex references, so I suppose it depends on if you get a laugh out of that sort of thing, as to how amusing you might find it. Maybe I'm a bit of a prude, usually strong language and sex references don't overly bother me but I didn't much like the frequent use of graphic sexual references, especially the 'c' word, thrown about the place, as it were. I thought, all in all, it was ok, a bit same-y and unoriginal but somewhat watchable all the same, if only to see Jude Law take on such a cocky cockney pure comedy/over the top type role. Mortdecai was mildly amusing with Johnny Depp playing a similar type of character and this is roughly about as good (although slightly shorter in running time, perhaps thankfully) as that was, I'd say. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Mike J Jude law is a repo man and proud of it Forrest Whitaker is tchalla from arrival and fast times at ridge not high James dean east of eden rebel without a cause and the giant.elegiac ode to alien covenant which formerly titled was paradise lost. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/28/22 Full Review Green G This is not without its flaws, but it's an incredibly funny and entertaining film that shouldn't be taken too seriously. Jude Law is a fantastic actor. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/29/21 Full Review georgan g The main character was so well played that I got pulled into his stupid mistakes as well as his crude but funny humor. A surprisingly good movie! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Barbara VanDenburgh Arizona Republic Dom is effusive with self-destructive charisma, the kind of loose cannon you'd follow into an all-night bender in spite of your better judgment. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 24, 2014 Full Review Tom Long Detroit News You don't so much care where Dom is going as how he's getting there, and he's getting there loud. Rated: B Apr 18, 2014 Full Review Moira MacDonald Seattle Times "Dom Hemingway" has two terrific things going for it: snappy dialogue (I was quite fond of the accusation "You disrespected my cat") and Law, who's both funny and scary in equal measures. Rated: 3/4 Apr 17, 2014 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …Dom Hemingway is a fascinating, vital character, and Shepard’s film gives him plenty of opportunity to vent his spleen through a memorably full-on performance from Law… Rated: 4/5 Apr 30, 2023 Full Review Robert Sims Lights Camera Austin What separates the eponymous antihero of Richard Shepard's British crime comedy from his contemporaries is his humanity. He knows when he's done right and he knows when he's done wrong, even though he can't help himself from doing more wrong than right. Jan 22, 2022 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse Law is better than the movie in a role that could come to redefine his career. Rated: 3/5 Feb 1, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
