- 40Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenLos Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenIn Mob Town, the cast’s definitely got the goods, but the writing and direction consistently fail to seal the deal.
- 38Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger MooreA historically and dramatically sloppy version of the“Apalachin Conference” made on a shoestring and starring David Arquette.
- 30The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckDespite its serious subject matter, Mob Town assumes an oddly comic tone for much of its running time, coming across almost like a spoof at times. Unfortunately, nothing in it is particularly funny, and the deadly pacing makes the movie seem much longer than it is.
- 30VarietyNick SchagerVarietyNick Schager“You think you’re in the movies or something?” crows Davi’s Genovese to an underling, but Mob Town’s wink-wink address of its own artificiality doesn’t excuse its inept execution, which extends to a stereotypical Italian score by Lionel Cohen.
