4/5
"Acting aside,
Crooks
ultimately succeeds on the strength of a wickedly hilarious script that proves Woody still has his funny bone."

Christopher Null
77/100
"
Small Time Crooks
stacks up pretty favourably to Woody's cinematic debut."
Apollo Guide
Dan Jardine
C+
"There are just enough Woody sight gags and one-liners for this film to keep its head above water."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
2.5/4
"Elaine May steals the show."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
"The talented comedian Tracey Ullman carries this comedy with her élan and spunky contentiousness."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
2.5/4
"I wish I could recommend
Small Time Crooks
more strongly, but the truth is that it's a weak (bordering on inconsequential) entry into the director's canon."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
"Allen doesn't push the material as far or as hard as he might have."
Screen It!
Jim Judy
7/10
"The film has plenty of laughs, delivers Woody firmly tucked back in his humor saddle."
JoBlo's Movie Emporium

6/10
"...its slack pace, aided by Allen's insistence on slow, improvisational acting styles, plus its soft center turn the film into an Allen also-ran."
DVDTown.com
John J. Puccio
"The film features some of the best comedic acting that you will ever see. Period."

"I don't know if Small Time Crooks would appeal to a regular fan of Woody Allen's, but it should delight Tracy Ullman fans no matter what."
Cinerina
Karina Montgomery
7/10
"Thin, clichéd comedy of crime and social climbing contains some scattered laughs and whole lot of padding."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
3/4
"As funny as any of his recent comic successes."
Movie Habit
Marty Mapes
2.5/4
"Delivers small time laughs."
Mr. Brown's Movies
Michael Dequina
3/5
"Ullman and Grant are fun to watch, but the real standout performance is Elaine May as Frenchy's dim-witted cousin."
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow
3/5
"Não é um filme espetacular, como alguns dos trabalhos anteriores de Allen, mas é bastante superior a diversas bobagens produzidas por Hollywood nos últimos tempos."
Cinema em Cena
Pablo Villaca
9/10
