Moviegoers are saying
This polarizing action-thriller splits audiences with its dark, violent tone that's been misleadingly marketed as a comedy. While viewers consistently praise the amazing performances from Austin, Zoey, Liev Schreiber, and Vincent D'Onofrio, many leave theaters questioning the film's purpose and feeling unsatisfied by its explicit, creepy atmosphere.

not risky enough to feel dangerous. not clever enough to be funny. 10% more "talking to a cat" moments would've put it on Argylle levels. enjoyable, occasionally gripping - but locked behind a Save-The-Cat screenplay that doesn't ever trust the audience.

- zxki is "meh" onCaught Stealing
Sadly, this is probably the most formulaic Aronofsky project yet, and it's a half hit, half miss. The entire cast does a great job, and as much as I appreciate the unique late 90s aesthetics, they don't quite work. The camerawork, cinematography, and humour hit incredibly well. The pacing, plot…
Brutalist is "meh" onCaught StealingI though I was gonna love it, but something is off, it looks great, it’s shot masterfully but the pacing is very off, for a film that is approx. 1:45, it felt extremely long, I think this is a great example of how pacing can tune out a film completely. Other than that, Butler has a couple of dry…
Mark Bateman likedCaught Stealing8/10 Cool, liked the cat dish names 🤭 also the sound track. Enjoyed the story (man with bad luck comes good), great cast. Recommend.

This was a lot of fun, very different from Darren Aronofsky’s other work, major Guy Ritchie vibes from this.
Matt White is "meh" onCaught StealingNever really took off. It was close though.

- Clay Werner lovedCaught Stealing
8.8 - This was on my most anticipated all year because of the loaded cast & director, plus a just overall fun concept - & I wasn’t disappointed. I do seem to be higher on it than most. It probably could have benefited from a tighter script. But I found it equally parts dark, emotional, & funny.…
Samuel Armer lovedCaught StealingFantastic Movie bro. Like this is the type of movie that makes me love movies. Looks beautiful. Amazing characters. Great story. Impactful decisions. Character development. Comedy done really well. Action not over the top. Drama has no limits. Romance, was there. Zoe Kravitz, need I say more. Great…
SweetThye lovedCaught StealingMight just be my favorite Aronofsky film after The Whale. Loved it, perfect length and pace, excellent characters and performances, great action. Music from Idles. Dirty, violent, chaotic, terrible NYC but has a happy ending. Unlike his other films I might actually rewatch this.

At last, an Aronofsky film where it doesn’t feel like he hates us. O brave new world, that has such movies in it.

It’s a little shaggy and you’ll occasionally yearn for a bit more humor along the way. But “Caught Stealing,” based on Charlie Huston’s 2004 novel, is a ride, foremost, in ‘90s nostalgia.

Pulsing up and down the arterial route of the B train from Brooklyn to the Bronx, Caught Stealing is a portrait of NYC at its most grimily charming.
