Down on her luck and saddled with debt, Emily becomes involved in a credit card scam that lands her in the Los Angeles criminal underworld, ultimately leading to deadly consequences.

There is a point in Emily the Criminal where the eponymous Emily (unsuspected to be a criminal and played by Aubrey Plaza with the necessary courage, bravery and uncompromising determination) is encouraged and told that she could be anything in life. Except that's not true. There can't be, say, Emily the Teacher because Emily is working dead-end jobs while she's swamped with bills and student loan payments.

And while Emily the Criminal certainly follows a template, there were a surprise or two along the way, reinforcing the idea that Emily is against her if she wants to eradicate her debt legally. Such haste also means that Emily begins to flout some of the larger goals of this credit card fraud scheme, which spells bad business for everyone involved.


At just 90 minutes, Emily the Criminal is a riveting and suspenseful watch, though it doesn't necessarily make the most of its shaky camera energy and poignant themes. It also wants to be something of a love story as Emily and Youcef grow closer, especially when she realizes that he has noble intentions with the money she's making. The problem is that none of these threads realize their full potential. That is not to say that the story is scattered, since all the necessary parts are here. It's also not to say that writer-director John Patton Ford is ineffective, just that he's not as fully formed as he should be.
