Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Holy Rollers offers an intriguing portrait of an insular community, but its recounting of the seduction of a bright young man by the surrounding culture is heavy-handed.
Rotten: Inspired by an actual late-1990s case in which young Orthodox Brooklynites served as mules for an international drug ring, Holy Rollers has a great dramatic premise and no idea where to take it.
Fresh: It's sadder and scarier than its predecessors, but it also may be the most important chapter in the tale.
Fresh: The film is slight, but Eisenberg is a deadpan delight.
Customer Reviews
Awesome
Then he went on to star in the social network and the producers just got an academy award nomination for another film. That says "see this film"
Half an half
I thought that the whole movie was great except for the way they portrayed aranged marriage in the Jewish community . Very unrealistic
TERRIBLE!
I've been to Crown Heights of Brooklyn New York. People do not do this.
