Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times: Read more
Susan Stark, Detroit News: Loaded with dramatic irony in the first half and with tension in the second, the film gives Douglas another chance to do his slick, sinister best; Paltrow a chance to extend her emotional range; and Mortensen a chance to play the chameleon. Read more
Stephen Holden, New York Times: You don't have to believe a word of the strained dialogue in A Perfect Murder to be seduced by the movie's chilly high-gloss ambiance and its skillfully plotted update of Frederick Knott's play... Read more
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times: A Perfect Murder begins better than it ends, and the pleasures it offers turn out to be more of a transitory nature. Read more

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: ...there's nothing about this thriller to prevent it from soon becoming enmeshed in the memory with others in which Michael Douglas wears a starched collar and grits his teeth. Read more
Jeff Strickler, Minneapolis Star Tribune: ...a fast-paced thriller that probably will leave Alfred Hitchcock aficionados mourning its shallowness -- but not until after they've enjoyed an adrenaline rush. Read more
