Sharper | Ratings & Reviews

"A very smooth ride and a very classy piece of entertainment."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"(A) smart, slick, slippery suspense flick."

StuffStuff

"You finish the movie wondering if you were the fool all along."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Before its lesser third act, Sharper manages to juggle its plot twists with panache."

Associated PressAssociated Press

"A quick, complex, yell-at-the-screen crime drama."

Chicago ReaderChicago Reader

"(Sharper) is a lot less sexy than it thinks it is."

Rolling StoneRolling Stone

"It’s fun. It should have been more fun, but take the fun where you can get it."

San Francisco ChronicleSan Francisco Chronicle

"A pretty-looking puzzle."

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"Sharper is a bloody good time, even when we can see those surprises coming right down Fifth Avenue."

Chicago Sun-TimesChicago Sun-Times

"It's 20 percent too slick for its own good."

Daily MailDaily Mail

"It's almost literally design philosophy as cinema... elevated by a whip-smart screenplay..."

The TimesThe Times

"Sleek, sexy, sophisticated fun."

ABCABC

"Great acting is a con game, of the highest order, and it’s a pleasure to be Moore’s mark."

Seattle TimesSeattle Times

"The film’s biggest trick might be casting Moore, Stan and the positively glowing Middleton and still never quite catching fire."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Sharper clearly wants to mimic that (Mamet) aesthetic, but the whole thing is only good enough as a diversion."

RogerEbert.comRogerEbert.com

"Piled high with plot twists and packed full of peerless performances..."

We Got This CoveredWe Got This Covered

"Even in its inherent flimsiness, it’s slick, tight and entertaining."

DeciderDecider

"In Sharper, we have to figure out who is conning whom and that puts a lot of pressure on the script."

Sydney Morning HeraldSydney Morning Herald

"Silly and unabashedly camp..."

Entertainment WeeklyEntertainment Weekly

"Caron’s feature debut has the look and feel of a classic con movie. But not the cold, calculating soul."

The Globe and MailThe Globe and Mail

"While some of the film’s beats are predictable, just as many are legitimately suspenseful and surprising."

PastePaste

"(Sharper is) mostly a hoot and so tidily executed it’s only later that you may find yourself questioning the plausibility of its wacky denouement."

Financial TimesFinancial Times

"The cinematic equivalent of a literary page-turner."
