Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

jtncsmistad-82689 From thequickflickcritic.blogspot.com/ "Felony". A treatise on "What goes around, comes around". On doing what's right because, in the end, it's the only thing TO do. And on the age-old unwritten mandate that "Cops take care of their own." That's a lot to bite off and chew, mate. The good news is that Director Matthew Saville and the stable of fine Australian acting talent at his behest more than pass muster here. Everyone steps up impressively to deliver a rock solid dramatic thriller with a constant current of conscience serving as it's foundation.Namely, Tom Wilkinson is outstanding as ever, Joel Edgerton (so good in last year's "The Gift") is as dependable as fans like me have come to expect and Jai Courtney comports himself just fine, thank you. Wilkinson is the reason to watch "Felony". As great as he is, the veteran inveterate character actor continues to operate largely under the radar.The time has long since passed that the damned radar zero in.For more of my Movie Reviews categorized by Genre please visit: thequickflickcritic.blogspot.com/

leonblackwood Review: I stupidly thought that this was going to be an action movie about cops taken out the bad guys, but it turned out to be a slow drama about a highly decorated cop who has a drink with his colleagues after a successful bust, and on the way home he mistakenly clips a bike rider with his wing mirror which causes innocent young kid to crash to the floor. He then calls the paramedics because the accident looks pretty serious and the head of the investigating team decides to cover up the fatal accident and put it down to the officer finding the kid on the floor. The movie is extremely slow and it seemed to be going round and round in circles. The officer who caused the accident wanted to admit the whole accident right from the beginning so the movie seemed a bit pointless. Its all about the officers guilt and how he deals with the fact that he put this little kid in critical condition. Although it's a deep drama that deals with an emotional subject matter, I personally found it pretty boring and nothing really happens for ages. It started of quite promising, with the edgy shootout, but then it goes dramatically downhill after the accident happens. Anyway, it could have been much better if they added a bit of action but the director chose to keep it as straight drama which was a bad choice from my point of view. Disappointing!Round-Up: I'm usually a fan of Joel Eggerton, who was great in Animal Kingdom and the Great Gatsby, but his performance in this movie was average. I think that the fault has to be with the director who didn't allow him to go deep into the tricky situation. Jai Courtney, who was terrible in A Good Day To Die Hard and Divergent, hasn't really been that impressive in his roles yet, but he still has some time to shine at the young age of 28. Tom Wilkinson on the other hand has been getting a lot of work lately and he always put in a great performance. At the age of 67 and with big movies like Batman Begins, The Grand Budapest Hotel and his emotional performance in Michael Clayton, I doubt that this small movie will hurt his reputation and in my personal opinion, he was the best thing in this film. Anyway, the whole movie was based in Australia and I'm certain that the money that was backing the movie came from Australia so maybe that's why they didn't try to make it into a big crime thriller like the Hollywood distributors would have.I recommend this movie to people who are into their deep dramas about a cop who causes an accident after a drink with his work colleagues and has to deal with the guilt when the crime is covered up. 3/10

antoniotierno The movie stars a trio of top male actors in splendid roles, so that the intricate and very intimate "Felony" is a police story crossed with a strong psychological drama. Three very different Australian detectives, each one determined to do the right thing, are supposed to decide how to define justice in one specific case and must choose what lines can be crossed and what price may be paid as to achieve it. Director Matthew Saville has perfectly constructed a low-key and realistic drama. These kinds of moral decisions and subjects always end up making involving films, especially when the key performers are as good as Tom Wilkinson, Joel Edgerton and Jai Courtney. Working on a perfect screenplay by Edgerton, the director Matthew Saville has expertly constructed an extremely realistic drama where the malleability of morality in an increasingly difficult situation takes center stage.

Hannah Gardiner It is a very good movie, the story line is very well thought out and is very good, but the movie goes very slowly it would be an excellent movie if it went a bit faster.The actors who are in it a very good. the director did a very good job just needs to make the movie move a bit faster.and since I am from Australia I am glad to see that the Australian movie empire moving along good job film Australia.There where some filming mistakes but that doesn't matter it still was a very good film. very well done Jai Courtney I loved you in divergent and I loved you in this!
