	Author	Review
United States	Guy Lodge Variety	"This dynamically acted, unapologetically contrived pic reps the filmmaker’s best chance to date of connecting with a wider audience."	POS
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"'99 Homes' passionately remonstrates against contemporary economic conditions."	POS
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"A riveting rabble-rouser that thinks it can make a difference. In these days when Hollywood typically dulls our wits, Ramin Bahrani's 99 Homes has a fire in its belly. It's spoiling to be heard (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Kyle Smith New York Post	"There might be a great movie to be made out of the financial crisis, but 99 Homes, which is like being shouted at by a man with bad breath while he grips your collar with both hands, isn’t it (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)"	NEU
United States	Jessica Kiang IndieWire	"'99 Homes' is exactly as effective as it needs to be. While neither subtle nor particularly nuanced, the blunt force trauma impact of its narrative never feels exploitative, being wholly justified by the importance of its themes."	POS
United States	Colin Covert Minneapolis Star Tribune	"This is a film of palpable anger, a finger on the pulse of modern America crafted by a team of rare ability to awaken outrage (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of four)"	POS
