Reading the cover the story seems un-original but with what seems a quality starring cast I viewed it without expecting much and upon the final scene I was right. First the use of Dennis Hopper and Val Kilmer whose parts... Full review

Ribisi is always good and he gives a great performance. I can;t say the rest of the cast does. The mother character is nothing too special and the lead is mediocre. The whole mob feel gets lost when Tommy Lee... Full review

But no matter how many times I watched this film, I just couldn't convince myself that "10th & Wolf" is a good enough movie for you to spend your hard-earned money on.
Dash Mihok ("Lost") plays a dimwitted heavy with a gimp who beats the daylights out of the babealicious Piper Perabo's ("Coyote Ugly") character, a recently widowed bartender, and Brad Renfro ("The Client") plays Tommy's even more dimwitted little brother and Joey's "Sancho Panza.

The performances in the film are uniformly strong, but I do find the characterizations to be a bit too much in many instances to buy as a real story.
The ensemble of actors is solid, although the casting is somewhat curious.

While Boiler Room was dubbed junior as a term of endearment for its respectful homage, 10th and Wolf is junior only in its infancy.
Screen veterans Dennehy and Leslie Ann Warren give engaging performances but their characters are flat.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
The story, even if rooted in some truth, is utterly preposterous and overwrought, but the city sure photographs well.
The government doesn't fare too well here, although no criminals are nominated for sainthood, either -- except maybe Marsden's character.
