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

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 Liam N Paul walker was the best part of this movie. Funny and charismatic as ever. The rest of the cast did fine as well. Norman reedus was the other stand out if i had to pick one. The pacing is slow at points but great at others. the one liners are amazing as is the unexpected nature of what occurs. Pawn shop chronicles is a Classic dark raunchy comedy, with a Tarantino type style. Despite unsteady pacing, lack of a true protagonist and being a little outdated reference wise, kramer provides a twisted and crazy trailer trash ride. If your a fan of walker or Kramer it's well worth the watch. 6.2/10 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/16/23 Full Review Liam N Paul Walker's character was the funniest and most interesting. Should have just made him and his buddy the main characters. Story's a little scattered but crazy in a mixed up and messed up way. If your a fan of Kramer/Walker or both, it's worth a watch. Dillion and Frasier are good as well. Missed opportunity. with a bigger budget I and a tighter story, I think this could have been alot better. Gets a boost as I love walkers performance here. 6.1/10 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/08/23 Full Review chris v Tongue in cheek spoof hits the spot for great entertainment. If you believe that there is no such thing as coincidence then this is the movie for you. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
