...A stirring, provocative exposé of the uses and abuses of power...
Rolling Stone
Jan 7, 1993
Hoffa, with its jaundiced script and a director wedded to his rose-tinted spectacles, is a mess, with only the sterling truculence of Nicholson's performance to mitigate it. Full Review

...[DeVito] is very assured... -- 3 out of 4 stars
USA Today
Dec 23, 1992
Rating: 3.5/4 -- Hoffa shows DeVito as a genuine filmmaker. Here is a movie that finds the right look and tone for its material. Not many directors would have been confident enough to simply show us Jimmy Hoffa instead of telling us all about him. Full Review

Rating: 5/5 -- A hugely underrated, passionate, powerful biopic.
San Francisco Examiner
Jan 17, 2003
With Jack Nicholson as the star and playwright David Mamet writing the script, Hoffa sounds unbeatable. But the movie is a major disappointment. Full Review

Rating: 7/10 -- Nicholson's intense, volcanic performance saves this part-fact, part-fiction biopic that's a little too in awe of its subject.
