Entertainment Reviews:
An amiable diversion, though not a terribly memorable one. Elmore Leonard aficionados longing for a truly worthy sendoff of the master crime writer will have to look ahead toward the upcoming final season of Justified, and cross their fingers.

The Atlantic
Daniel Schechter's sly, cleverly plotted caper reps a fitting memorial to the late Elmore Leonard.
Variety
Rating: 3/5 --
If you're in the market for a workaday crime story, Schechter's film fulfils some of its obligations. You might just wish it had more life.

Daily Telegraph (UK)
Rating: 3/5 --
Hawkes and Mos Def are their charismatic selves and are well placed to deliver Leonard's zippy dialogue, yet the wistful fetishism of the aesthetics smoothers their character's rough corners and dilutes some of their attitude.

CineVue
3 stars out of 5 -- Jennifer Aniston brings poignancy to her role as a kidnapped wife whose husband isn’t too fussed about her freedom.
Total Film
[O]ne of the most, if not the most, faithful to the source material of all the [Elmore] Leonard adaptations...true to the stylized dialogue and wit of the novel itself. Life of Crime is as witty and wonderful on the big screen as on the page.

Behind The Lens
It doesn't quite transcend its own haphazard, impoverished story.
