Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter Jul 22, 2014
Kevin Asch's sophomore feature attempts to tackle weighty themes but ultimately feels as shallow as the lives of most of its principal characters. Go to Full Review
Sheri Linden Los Angeles Times Jul 17, 2014
"The Great Gatsby" Lite screenplay by Antonio Macia hasn't the sharpness of satire or the momentousness of an American tragedy, veering instead toward middling melodrama. Go to Full Review
Brent Simon Paste Magazine Aug 16, 2014
3.9/10
