Critic Reviews

Stephen Farber

The film is effective in its intimate moments as well as its violent set pieces, and it could attract audiences, primarily because of Spacek's superb performance. Read full review

Bill White

Garity, son of Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden, gives the kind of performance rarely seen in today's movies. Read full review

Robert Koehler

The astonishingly inept finish could serve as a primer in screenwriting classes on how not to wind up a family drama. Read full review

Josh Rosenblatt

The only thing saving Lake City from total ridiculousness is Spacek. Read full review

Michelle Orange

Added to the general torpidity and twangy tropes of this Southern family drama is the discomfort of watching a natural actor (Garity) force it. Read full review

Kyle Smith

One of those Deep Dark Secret movies, the dull indie Lake City combines a wholly uninteresting family mystery with a wholly unconvincing crime drama. Read full review

Joe Neumaier

Only natural spitfire Spacek, as the pickup-driving mom of the land, feels fresh. There's even a mouthy kid Garity is "taking care of" - guess whose son he is? Read full review

It took two directors to make this movie so boring?! Painfully slow moving, it lacks focus and and excitement. Even Sissy Spacek can't save this one.
