TV Guide Maitland McDonagh
The narrative is cluttered with backstory, and the endless digressions overwhelm the efforts of a generally strong cast.
Read Full Review >New York Daily News Elizabeth Weitzman
At this late date, filmmakers who draw inspiration from the Mafia had better have a whole new angle to offer. Otherwise, they'll end up with a movie like 10th & Wolf.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Stephen Holden
The characters never transcend the clichés embedded in the culture since "The Godfather."
Read Full Review >The Onion (A.V. Club) Noel Murray
It isn't exactly a waste of time, but anyone who's seen a mob movie or TV show in the past 30 years has pretty much seen 10th & Wolf.
Read Full Review >New York Post Lou Lumenick
Solid cast notwithstanding, 10th and Wolf is a generic, direct-to-video-grade gangster movie.
Read Full Review >Philadelphia Inquirer Steven Rea
"The Godfather" without Brando, "GoodFellas" without Scorsese, "The Sopranos" without Gandolfini - 10th & Wolf is all that, and less.
Read Full Review >Entertainment Weekly Owen Gleiberman
At least Ribisi's fake-cojones histrionics are fun. The rest of this "Donnie Brasco" knockoff, with James Marsden as a Gulf War veteran who goes undercover, is a turgid, ketchup-spattered dud.
Read Full Review >Village Voice Michael Atkinson
A hellish and unconvincing celebration of badda-bing-ness.

Jack F gave it a7:
Despite the disappointing ending, 10th & Wolf is a good movie, with a great turn from Giovanni Ribisi. Not the most original movie ever made, but worth a watch.
Ralph E. gave it a5:
Not awful, but not terrific, either. The material was cluttered with too many subplots, so the main story ended up being rather thin. There are a lot of familiar mob movie clichés. Lots of poorly researched elements -- the meat butchers are straight out of 1930s in a 1990s movie. Some actors are badly miscast. But the film has some real high moments, too. As one of the reviewers said, however, there are so many excellent mob movies out there, so if you're going to do a mob movie, and it's sort of half-baked, your effort will seem all the less compelling.
David M. gave it an8:
The cast was the best thing that happened to this movie.
