Austin Chronicle by

Graceland is terrific entertainment, but I can’t decide if it’s a cautionary tale, an exercise in moral relativism, or an exploitation film. There’s the final conundrum.

Village Voice by Ernest Hardy

Striking the right balance between interior and exterior can mean the difference between compelling drama and accidental melodrama. Writer-director Ron Morales just misses equilibrium in the visually arresting Filipino thriller Graceland.

75

The Playlist by Gabe Toro

Mezmerizing in fits and starts, Graceland doesn't coalesce into the "important" thriller it seeks to be.

83

The A.V. Club by Tasha Robinson

It’s a dark, grim, suffocating story that only missteps by overplaying its hand, making the larger message about prostitution increasingly overt.
