Critic Reviews for Ray Donovan: The Movie
All Critics (13) | Top Critics (8) | Fresh (11) | Rotten (2)
This two-hour film wrap-up of the unjustly cancelled crime series may feel patchy and uneven, but it still gives Liev Schreiber's Ray-a hardcase-for-hire who can fix anything but the nightmare of his past- the send-off he and we deserve.
The bad news is, there is no season 8 and the movie's sense of obligation makes it a bit tiresome for anyone not wholly invested in the series. The good news is, sometimes fan protests pay off.
There are some nice references and callbacks, but where the movie truly succeeds is in getting to the emotional core of the series that -- like Ray's memories of the past --reveals its most important and formative truths.
While the movie finale may not come in a package that satisfies every diehard fan, it wraps up its compelling portrait of an eccentric working-class family as emotionally chaotic as should be expected.
Ray frequently used a baseball bat to solve problems. Although it's nice to see the show's creative team afforded one final swing, it's too bad they don't knock it out of the park.
Ray Donovan: The Movie never feels like cheap fan service; it hints at what an entire eighth season could have been and provides just enough closure while avoiding easy conclusions for most of its characters.
