Inspired by the reputed experiences of the film's producer, Middle Men casts its protagonist in a suspiciously flattering light... Fortunately Wilson brings enough dark and disreputable shades to the character for the film to work.August 06, 2010
Mr. Gallo, for his part, is content to decorate a fairly conventional, intermittently entertaining crime chronicle with a bit of skin and a soupçon of pop sociology. There must be other ways to learn about pornography on the Internet.August 06, 2010
Kind of a mess.January 03, 2011
Is Jack, who is patterned on a real-life character, sociopathic or just plain clueless? Gallo doesn't seem to care. He cares about parading before us lowlifes living the high life.August 06, 2010
This very well-acted, often amusing and dirty-minded hard-R film still stands out in a sea of market-driven blandness.January 29, 2011
...a film that can't make up its mind what it wants to be: a comedy, a melodrama, a crime thriller, or a documentary.September 25, 2010
Trust me when I say there is too much story here for a film that runs just over 100 minutes.February 10, 2011
Considering the naughty subject matter, Middle Men is a shockingly dull affair.April 04, 2011
Save yourself the trouble of watching it and just check out Goodfellas instead.September 16, 2010
If it weren't for James Caan's shyster Las Vegas lawyer, the whole, um, pornucopia would be a complete waste of time. Best to think of this as Middling Men.August 10, 2010
I never got the feeling Gallo and company figured out how to compress and focus their stories.August 06, 2010
Middle Men is an anxious film, but not in a good way, in that it doesn't generate suspense so much as dread.
