Henry's Crime

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Supporting actors Vera Farmiga and James Caan give the movie a little heft, but Henry's Crime is an otherwise predictable heist/comedy with slow pacing.

Fortunately, for a film that quotes so much Chekhov, Henry's Crime is likably unpretentious: a wry story about a quiet schmuck who finally sticks his neck out. Go to Full Review
Moira MacDonald Seattle Times 04/28/2011
2.5/4
An intermittently entertaining comedy/drama with a funny script and a fatal miscasting. Go to Full Review

Go for Caan and Farmiga, and stay to be surprised by Reeves. Go to Full Review

Henry's Crime is quieter than either of its genres leads one to expect but, perhaps because of this, it provides a lot of fun throughout. Go to Full Review

The film feels a bit enervated, even when the script asks it to fly off the rails toward the end. Go to Full Review
Kelly Vance East Bay Express 04/28/2011
The screenplay leeches all the fun out of it, and the principals - aside from Caan, who generates his own power - seem lost and abandoned. Go to Full Review

bob c May 19 Sure, it’s another heist/comedy movie, but it’s got enough difference to make it worth watching. Even with KR’s minimalist technique. See more John S 06/19/2024 I personally thought it was an excellent movie.It did everything a movie supposed to do,it entertained.I especially liked James Caan and Kneau Reeves was perfect in his role as well. See more Robert M 06/14/2024 It is, simply, a movie everyone can enjoy. You absolutely do not have to, or want to, see it twice. It IS predictable but if you want phoney meaningless twists and turns , look somewhere else. Henry’s Crime was 2 hours that I don’t wish I had back. I’ll look on those 2 hours with fondness. See more carlos t 05/30/2022 Minha opinião: Uma comédia light. O Keanu com sua cara songo, é levado por seus amigos a um assalto sem que ele saiba. A policia o prende por 3 anos. Como ele sente injustiçado por isso e mais a esposa que deixa ele por um amigo e ainda a engravida. Resolve assaltar o banco de verdade. E nisso descobre o amor por uma atriz de teatro. Chama seu amigo de cela e mais o novo marido de sua ex. nisso o guarda que o prendeu também entra na quadrilha. E assim segue o filme. O final com um toque romântico, onde o Amor e maior que o dinheiro. Roteiro: Um roteiro light, para um filme light. Vale apena assistir? Quer esdacer um pouco o cérebro? Então assista. Nota: 7 See more 01/24/2022 Described and previewed as more serious than it is. Wasn't at all what is expected, the cast alone makes it watchable until things get interesting, which they barely do. See more 01/16/2022 Yeah.. not the best. But hey, Niagra Falls was still pretty to see, even from the US side... LOL! See more Read all reviews
