	Author	Review
United States	Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News	"Gallo has the start of a good story here, but he can't find an original way to explore it"	NEU
United States	Michael Rechtshaffen The Hollywood Reporter	"Although comparisons to 'Boogie Nights' are unavoidable, 'Middle Men,' a lively, fictionalized account of the rise of the Internet porn industry, is decidedly stimulating in its own right"	POS
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"There is a raffish vigor that makes the movie watchable despite all-over-the-map storytelling and a fuzzy, superficial grasp of the salient themes"	NEU
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Best of all is Wilson, digging into his juiciest role in years and putting a human face on this mesmerizing morality tale (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Mick LaSalle SFGATE	"Sober and dispiriting, tense and morose (...) In good and bad ways, 'Middle Men' feels true"	NEU
