Peter Sobczynski RogerEbert.com The problem with "Pawn Shop Chronicles" is not the fact that it is a clone of "Pulp Fiction." The problem is that it is a lousy clone. Rated: 1/4 Jul 30, 2013 Full Review Stephen Holden New York Times A hillbilly grindhouse yawp of a movie that belches in your face and leaves a sour stink. Rated: 1/5 Jul 11, 2013 Full Review Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News It gets pretty tiring watching decent actors indulge in such broad and unfunny caricatures. Rated: 1/5 Jul 11, 2013 Full Review MontiLee Stormer MovieReelist.com The club scenes are incredible. Jennifer Lopez does her own dancing, training for months on the pole for that authentic feel. Cameos give it a never-ending party feel. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 16, 2020 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue The freewheeling script strains to be edgy while most of its jokes fall flat. Jul 22, 2013 Full Review Annlee Ellingson Paste Magazine Pawn Shop Chronicles' stylistic flourishes, used so judiciously in The Cooler are heavy-handed here and, with the possible exception of when the picture squints into anamorphic, just not that clever. Rated: 5.5/10 Jul 19, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Nesrin U His acting feels lıke acting more lıke a parmanent reating face.Guess who?? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/19/25 Full Review Charles P Not terrible, but definitely an anthology flick in disguise (the people comparing this to Pulp Fiction at any level are cracking me up, it's not really got very much in common) - this one has some solid moments of comedy, less effective ones of horror/thriller, a degree of violence that isn't quite over the top but also still misplaced, and an amusing if overall one-note gag about the barbering preferences of a small southern town. Not bad, definitely not great, YMMV. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/08/25 Full Review Big A Great Film!! Wild Fun Ride!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/07/25 Full Review Terry S Maybe I'm lower-class than I thought but I enjoyed this film immensely--Much more than Pulp Fiction. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/15/23 Full Review Tex S This movie is simply outstanding! It has a little bit of everything to keep you in your seat and focused. Great acting and especially from Paul Walker who also co produced the film. Action drama comedy thrills and quirky moments brings this to an exciting movie you just want to watch over and over again. Totally love it, only wish for more. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/22/23 Full Review Nichols J Random violence, graphic unexpected and expected violence. Kinda dark funny, but not funny enough or unpredictable enough to overcome the dark part. Trying to be deep, but not really trying that hard. Meh Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
