"Genius. Outstanding. "
Rob Paul
"Everything I could ask for in a noir -- a keen mystery, shady characters, inner monologue, and a sultry jazz track. It starts off really slowly so prop your eyelids open for a bit. "
Marcus
"Good watch for sure! Great cast and Edward Norton was great. Little slow but good, its good for a relaxing night and get into the characters."
Dimitri Pirozzi
"Edward Norton in yet another superb movie! "
Carla Craddock
"Best film noir - the genre is usually snoozy; this one crackles with electricity, with jaw-dropping cinematography and a flawless score. Edward Norton wrote & directed as well! Not to miss"

"I like “gunshot” movies. This one doesn’t disappoint. A-list actors. It was a slow start and then I started to get invested. "

"10/10 Incredible. Edward Norton wrote a great script and did an amazing directing job with an All-Star cast. The cinematography/Director of Photography is brilliant showcasing 1940's New York. I don't have anything negative to say about Motherless Brooklyn"
Cory Koopman
"Best noir I have seen in a long time. Great film, and creative too."
JR Pro
"Just a great story in a period piece of NYC in the same timeframe I grew up there"
William McNamara
"It can be a bit slow, but the story is excellent! A nod to the detective stories of days gone by. "
