Critics Consensus

Bolstered by a pair of likable leads and suffused in a warmly nostalgic glow, Rob the Mob is an uneven crime caper that mostly works.

Tommy & Nina, with their cool & classic looks, are the love bandits, targeting an elderly mob after casing a Gotti trial. Romano provides the scoop, while Garcia maintains with the old mafia bit.

Ballsy, crazy, dumb, delusional Tommy and Rosie are wonderully played by Pitt and Arianda. But best of all, this was not based in the fanciful notion of some writer but real petty criminals who thwarted the mafia for some time. The film points up the flaws of a legal system that has to ensure state's evidence is gained a certain way to a certain degree in order to convict, but while the cops work to do so, the mafia continues its insidious crimes. Tommy and Rosie are allowed to stay alive just out of random circumstances and the general incompetence of the mob. It's an off the beaten path love story that convicts the bad guys while ending the lives of two petty criminals who are treated by the cops with equal distain to that of the bigger fish.

Just recently heard of the true events and decided to watch this. It's somewhat of an artsy movie and not in a bad way. Good and fairly accurate to my understanding, yet the last 30 minutes or so seemed lost and as if it was getting bored with itself.

Rob the Mob, is a fascinating movie about a desperate (and frankly, pretty dumb) couple who brazenly "steal from the mafia" during the John Gotti trial. The music and writing are a tad overly sentimental, but the performances carry the day.

Seattle Times

It's a story so outlandish that it needs to be served by a combination of drama and comedy, and "Rob the Mob" finds that balance quite well.

Newsday

As Tommy and Rosie, Pitt and Arianda are just the right kind of nuts, the right kind of dumb, the right kind of desperate and the right kind of in love to make it all go down like pie.

Rated: 3.5/4

San Francisco Chronicle

De Felitta has a feel for this world and its atmosphere, from the clutter and casual ugliness of the streets, to the insularity of the mentality, to the unexpected sweetness and vulnerability of the people.

...a compelling setup that’s employed to watchable yet distressingly forgettable effect...

Rob the Mob is the story of two lovers who are clearly a few eggs short of a baker's dozen.
