Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Mr. Eisenberg and particularly Mr. Bartha give appropriately twitchy, live-wire performances, and the film tells its basically bleak story lucidly and with touches of dark humor.
Rotten: Holy Rollers feels staged and exoticized in the way stories about insular communities often do when told by outsiders.
Rotten: Holy Rollers offers an intriguing portrait of an insular community, but its recounting of the seduction of a bright young man by the surrounding culture is heavy-handed.
Fresh: It's sadder and scarier than its predecessors, but it also may be the most important chapter in the tale.

Awesome
Then he went on to star in the social network and the producers just got an academy award nomination for another film. That says "see this film"
Half an half
I thought that the whole movie was great except for the way they portrayed aranged marriage in the Jewish community . Very unrealistic
TERRIBLE!
I've been to Crown Heights of Brooklyn New York. People do not do this.
