Mr. Untouchable Reviews Good

  • The Washington Post: Mr. Untouchable Review
    • "It's fast and furious, and it proves that crime doesn't pay, unless you know how to do it right."
  • New York Post: Mr. Untouchable Review
    • "What emerges is a portrait of a complex man."
  • ComingSoon.net: Mr. Untouchable Review
    • " Marc Levin's biggest coup was actually finding Barnes and having him tell his story in his own words, which is ultimately the most interesting part of the movie."
  • AvClub.com: Mr. Untouchable Review
    • "Legendary '70s heroin kingpin Leroy "Nicky" Barnes is filmed like a deposed king in exile in Mr. Untouchable, Marc Levin's slick look at one of New York's most notorious criminal masterminds."

Mr. Untouchable Reviews Bad

  • Variety.com: Mr. Untouchable Review
    • "One seriously confused documentary. Since the film tries to couch itself as too hip to deliver a cautionary anti-drug message while surveying the collapse of an egomaniacal big shot, its sentiments toward Barnes -- vicious thug? Superfly with bigger guns and bigger bank? -- are visibly torn."
  • Slant Magazine: Mr. Untouchable Review
    • "Marc Levin may avoid outright idol-worship, but any restraint exhibited by his film is disingenuous."
  • Newsday.com: Mr. Untouchable Review
    • "Marc Levin, whose last documentary, Protocols of Zion, was a gutsy examination of post-9/11 anti-Semitism, has an even tougher job on his hands with Leroy 'Nicky' Barnes: making the man interesting."
  • Metromix Chicago: Mr. Untouchable Review
    • "Isn't an inside look at the men who ruled a city but just an excuse to collect 'Superfly,' 'Sexual Healing' and 'Let's Stay Together' on a soundtrack."
