Ruzowitzky (The Counterfeiters) may be an occasionally interesting visual stylist, but storytelling-wise, his second English-language effort couldn't be more stillborn.

What are critics saying?
A bonafide family drama, proof that the noir has humanistic roots. It left me feeling thankful for persistent movie traditions.
ReelViews by James Berardinelli
Deadfall suffers most obviously from a sense of not being adequately developed.
Entertainment Weekly by Owen Gleiberman
There isn't much to the characters in this morose thriller.
Deadfall is an above-average genre piece with a terrific cast that builds to a bloody Thanksgiving dinner shoot-out I found pretty close to unforgettable.
A highly satisfying Western-cum-noir in the old tradition, Deadfall is alive in ways that are all too rare among American movies.
