Reviews

Blue in the Face received mixed reviews from critics. Despite being a mere extension of the previous film 'Smoke,' some critics appreciated the improvisational nature of the script and the seamless interaction between the cast members. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a rating of 43%, with some critics praising its authentic portrayal of Brooklyn's diverse culture, while others found it lacking in substance. Metacritic scored the film 54/100, indicating mixed or average reviews. However, fans of indie films and those who enjoy character-driven narratives may find Blue in the Face a delightful continuation of the familiar world created in 'Smoke.' Harvey Keitel shines in his role, bringing depth and charm to the movie.
