Critics' reviews

"A cuddly capitalist satire that riffs on the true story"

Amy Nicholson: Variety
"Aron Gaudet and Gita Pullapilly’s ambivalence deprives the film of both the wish-fulfillment fantasy of an antihero arc and the moral righteousness of a straightforward do-gooder one."

Angie Han: The Hollywood Reporter
"What it lacks in side-splitters it more than makes up for with a well-paced, remarkably well-written crime adventure about a pair of suburban women"

Lauren Coates: The Playlist
"A movie about couponing crime lords sounds fun. ‘Queenpins’ is not (...) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"

Kristen Page-Kirby: The Washington Post
"Queenpins" boasts a cast of talented ringers, who elevate the muddled material far more than it deserves, without actually resulting in an all-around good movie"

Josh Spiegel: SlashFilm
"The film’s largely painful humor is informed by the mistaken belief that the main characters’ criminal enterprise is inherently quirky (...) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"

Wes Greene: Slant
"Queenpins" might have been better off as a parody (...) "Queenpins" isn't smart or savvy enough to turn the situation into a David and Goliath story of corporate culture"

Adam Graham: Detroit News
“Queenpins” might have been a snappy little comedy had it lost 20 minutes and found a point beyond glorifying grand larceny"

Jeannette Catsoulis: The New York Times
