( Showing 1-14 of 14 Tomatometer Reviews, sorted z-a )   "A good sit." -- Chuck Schwartz, CRANKY CRITIC®   "'...Mafia, rap stars and hood rats butt their ugly heads in a regurgitation of cinematic violence that gives brutal birth to an unlikely, but likable, hero.'" -- Anita Schmaltz, METRO TIMES   "A little judicious editing would have helped a lot, but the talented cast matches the film's ambitions and compensates for its modest budget." -- Ken Fox, TV GUIDE'S MOVIE GUIDE   "The screenplay comes across, rather unintentionally, as Hip-Hop Scooby-Doo." -- David Cornelius, AMAZING COLOSSAL WEBSITE --  Click to read the article. -- Cynthia Fuchs, POPMATTERS   Click to read the article. -- Clint Morris, MOVIEHOLE Cream of the Crop ROTTEN 11% Avg. Rating: 4.1/10   "Trying to make head or tail of the story in the hip-hop indie Snipes is enough to give you brain strain -- and the pay-off is negligible." -- Megan Turner, NEW YORK POST   "Snipes relies too much on a scorchingly plotted dramatic scenario for its own good." -- Susan Stark, DETROIT NEWS   "A cockeyed shot all the way." -- Laura Sinagra, VILLAGE VOICE   "As is often the case with ambitious, eager first-time filmmakers, Mr. Murray, a prolific director of music videos, stuffs his debut with more plot than it can comfortably hold." -- A.O. Scott, NEW YORK TIMES   "Undone by its overly complicated and derivative screenplay, the glacier-paced direction and the stereotypical characters." -- Frank Scheck, HOLLYWOOD REPORTER   "Highly watchable stuff." -- Michael O'Sullivan, WASHINGTON POST   "A loud, low-budget and tired formula film that arrives cloaked in the euphemism 'urban drama.'" -- Terry Lawson, DETROIT FREE PRESS   "Snipes is both a snore and utter tripe." -- Ann Hornaday, WASHINGTON POST   "Involving at times, but lapses quite casually into the absurd." -- John Anderson, NEWSDAY
