- 40Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayLos Angeles TimesNoel MurrayCold Blood is well-made but hard to warm to — although it might satisfy nostalgic Reno fans, eager to see him playing a silent, hulking assassin yet again.
- 30The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisIf Petitjean’s dialogue is problematic, its delivery is no less so: at times, the discord between a character’s words and lip movements suggests that some line readings had to be dubbed.

- 12RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoRogerEbert.comBrian TallericoI thought of one of Roger Ebert’s most famous quotes while watching Cold Blood: “No good film is too long and no bad movie is short enough.” I think he’d understand what I mean when I say that Cold Blood feels like the longest movie of the year.
