Reaction: No complaints here. Solid profits from a solid movie. The budget was maybe a little high for the genre, but the star-studded cast and Scorsese behind the camera helped bring in the foreign crowds.
"A solid, but minor entry in Scorsese's filmography. The Raven in the Night is much more Shutter Island than Goodfellas." - Rick Green, New Yorker
"The story could've used a more proactive protagonist, but Amy Adams has enough charm to make the character work. Scorsese and his cast really saved this one on pure talent alone. I'm not sure what attracted them to this fairly pedestrian plot though." - Brian Edelstein - Time Out
"Despite a talented cast and one of the greatest directors of all time, the story feels a little too hokey. With all the talent involved, this one should've been better." - Tom Lane, Detroit News
