It's so hilariously inept that it's almost worth watching.

Rated: 1/5

Daily Telegraph (UK)

It's with strange awe that you realise, halfway through the legal thriller Misconduct, that it may actually be the worst film either Anthony Hopkins or Al Pacino have ever starred in.

Rated: 1/5

Guardian

It shamelessly cribs from 90s potboilers (a last-minute twist is stolen from a notable film of the decade) and Pacino is hammier than a hog roast, but it's too lurid to be dull.

Rated: 2/5

Deep Focus Review

This kind of yarn would have inspired a major audience draw a couple decades ago, but now the whole thing feels tired and derivative.

The result is pacy, patchy and, at the last, plain old slapdash: if anyone can work out what the eventual villain did -- or why -- please let us know.

Rated: 2/5

You ever watch a film with an interesting premise, but the directors and writers like to add unnecessary scenes and characters that take away from what the original movie was really about......well i found the film for you just in case you never saw a Frankenstein monster movie.

Well I guess I’m alone in the fact that I really liked this movie…I thought it had good thrills to it and I didn’t care about it making sense. But I’m not a movie critic….i enjoyed it even watched it twice..

Why did two great actors ever agree to be in such a stupid movie?
