| Rich Alejandro | 88 | - I am a sucker for Paul Newman movies, I will admit. I am also a sucker for Redford movies, and if you look around TheLast Castle, I did work for that movie. So, this is one of my favorites just for the story and the fact theres two of my all time favorites in there. | |

| Dan O'Neill | 85 | - Though it runs on too long, The Sting is still beautiful to look at as well as being incredibly entertaining, charming, funny, well-acted, and featuring lots and lots of twists and turns to keep any watcher on the edge of their seat. (full review) | |
| Rob from GuysFilmQuest | 83 | - Not enough time spent tying up loose ends and explaining how things fit together, but if you don't need FULL closure it is still a really clever movie. | Comedy: 2 Sex Appeal: 2 Scary: 2 Rewatch: 6 |
