Critic Reviews

Ron Wells

Some of the acting may not be the best and many of the points aren't made with a soft touch, but damn, I can't think of another film about addiction with a more accurate view from the inside. Read full review

Stephen Holden

It's about individuals, not about sensations. If the characters' backgrounds are not examined in detail, the movie still conveys an intimate sense of who they are and their emotional connections. Read full review

David Sterritt

Rodriguez makes a promising debut with this unsentimental drama. If she keeps working on her screenwriting skills, she could become a filmmaker to reckon with. Read full review

V.A. Musetto

Occasionally becomes melodramatic. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

The story is predictable, but Reeder's performance is painfully convincing and the East Village locations so uniformly grimy that they all but weep despair. Read full review

Dennis Harvey

An earnest drama that's never quite as raw or moving as it means to be. Read full review

Scott Tobias

Though it isn't explained until the closing minutes, the title Acts Of Worship says a lot about Rodriguez's terminal weakness for the overwrought and faux-poetic. Read full review
