Critics Consensus

Riff Raff assembles an incredible cast who are a pleasure to be around, but it should be a bit more fun with this much comedic talent involved.

Amy Nicholson

Los Angeles Times

Like a pool shark, Montiel reveals his intentions only toward the end. The gamble doesn’t pay off as well as it could, but at least “Riff Raff” gets smarter as it goes on.

Thelma Adams

AARP Movies for Grownups

Murray and Harris are poetry in motion as an acting team, while Coolidge is kooky to the max, Union is the side-eye queen and Davidson is a deadly dorky foil for Murray. There’s no learning, no hugs, just hilarity and a cast of favorites.

Rated: 4/5

New York Times

...Harris and Murray are such reliably engaging screen presences that they provide a few glimmers of entertainment, provided you’re able to set aside the movie’s practically all-encompassing repulsiveness.

I have mixed feelings about this film It tried to cram too much into it's runtime with too many characters and didn't give everyone their full showing.

Rated: 7/10

We Live Entertainment

Coming off looking like a script pulled from the Tarantino knock-off bin last drawn from in the early 00s, Riff Raff is a curious feature. It functions as a crime caper and a family comedy-drama, and the tone is, unsurprisingly, all over the place.

Rated: 5/10

The poor reviews are accurate. Nothing appealing in this movie, despite a good cast.
