Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 06/08/2012
Although it's doubtful that film fans walk around lamenting the dearth of Israeli characters in gangster movies, For the Love of Money nonetheless attempts to fill the gap. Go to Full Review Dennis Harvey Variety 06/08/2012
An attempted Scorsese-esque crime epic that too often feels like an underdeveloped outline. Go to Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times 06/08/2012
1.5/5
It decelerates into an unremarkable good-guys-vs.-bad-guys tale that ends in a glaringly tension-free showdown. Go to Full Review Brent Simon Shared Darkness 07/29/2012

05/25/2015 This is a copycat style from Martin Scorcese's Goodfellas and Mean Streets. This is the worst crime genre film. See more 07/27/2013 It wouldn't be so bad if the story wasn't so tediously moralistic... and it's a true story, so? It didn't need to be shot! See more 05/17/2013 it was a fun and enjoyable film. defently the cast was outstanding. See more 10/01/2012 At least it had somewhat of a good. Soundtrack. Furlong adds a little spice as a bad guy for like 5 mins in the start of it. But most of the plot is all about a man who wants to do good but just doesnt. He can't seem to get away from all the crap that people keep serving him. It's not horrible it's just not excellent. It's just good enough to be ok.
