Rating: 3/4 --
It's meandering and uneven, but much of it is powerfully effective and affecting.
Houston Chronicle
Rating: 3/5 --
Chrystal unravels a bit toward the end as it becomes more fable-like, but the performances make it worthwhile.

Respectable piece of work is reasonably involving if not compelling.
Variety
Rating: 3/4 --
Looks and feels authentic in a way only a Southern director is likely to achieve.

Rating: B --
Even those impatient viewers who feel like they're watching paint dry will admit that the colors are beautiful.

Dallas Morning News
A grand story of redemption, laced with barbecued wit and slopped with intrigue.
Hollywood Reporter
Rating: C --
Moves at a virtually glacial pace, dramatizing its story less than entombing it...lacks the radiance it obviously aspires to.

One Guy's Opinion
Product Description:
Starring Billy Bob Thornton, CHRYSTAL is a touching tale of a man coming to terms with a life left in tatters. After 16 years spent behind bars, Joe (Thornton) returns to the wife he crippled in a car accident that proved fatal for their young son. Desperate to make amends and start afresh, Joe's wife, Chrystal (Lisa Blount), has a hard time accepting his presence back in her life. Director Ray McKinnon effortlessly guides his film through a series of ups and downs for Joe and Chrystal, creating a satisfying portrait of a man struggling to recapture what he once had. McKinnon also appears in the movie, in an impressive cast which also includes a turn from famed American character actor Harry Dean Stanton.
