  • Review Quotes

    • "Nobel Son is a dreary little thriller that irritates more than it thrills. When you look at the cast, headed by Alan Rickman, Mary Steenburgen, Bill Pullman and Danny DeVito, you have to wonder: What were they thinking? Could it be that they're friends of the director, Randall Miller? If so, they did him no favor by helping this sorry mess to get made."—San Fransisco ChronicleSF Gate: Nobel Son a Little Too Cutesy (December 5, 2008)
    • "A fine line separates the super smart from the super psycho, and a lot of people are dancing on it in Nobel Son."—Washington PostWashington Post: Son Too Much Drama (December 5, 2008)
