- Critics' reviews

-
"Purposely out of step with the feel-good-movie era, he offers caustic wit instead of gags, blunt questions instead of glib answers and challenges instead of reassurances. Bless him."
-
"Mamet's stylized dialogue crackles urgently and colorfully, each word landing with a weight you find only in good writing"
-
"'Homicide' isn't easy to take, but its vision is chillingly persuasive"
-
"A haunting picture that nags at you, days later"
