"The script and its plotting are very messy, but the film is saved by the performances from its cast, especially Mark Ruffalo and Timothee Chalamet. Ruffalo exudes warmth as a well-meaning doctor, while Chalamet manages to make his character mostly likable." - Charles Yost, Oregonian
"Oh Johnny Boy somehow manages to tell its story both too carefully and too haphazardly. Just when it appears that the story is starting to right itself, a bizarre scripting decision is made to take you out of the film. It's not a terrible film, and it has a lot of heart, but it can get frustrating at times." - James Tubbs Jr., Vice Magazine
"As a writer, Alex Conn is now responsible for two of the most ridiculous, cartoonish villains in recent memory. Woody Harrelson's character here joins Dane DeHann from Life of a Champion in the Hall of Fame of bad villains that take you out of the story." - Jeremy Raren, RottenTomatoes.com
