Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: A terrific thriller. Read more
Susan Stark, Detroit News: Read more
Chris Vognar, Dallas Morning News: Cannily borrows from the master in weaving a deviously twisted and surprisingly subtle tale of its own. Read more
Dave Kehr, New York Times: A strange and funny film, smart, complex and difficult to shake. Read more
John Zebrowski, Seattle Times: A film Alfred Hitchcock might have considered a good start. Read more
Steve Murray, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: It's a dry, cool character study that's primarily an exercise in tonal control - neither very funny nor very scary, but unnerving in a slow-burn way. Read more
Eric Harrison, Houston Chronicle: Unfortunately, the groove it settles into is a lot less interesting than the possibilities suggested earlier. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: Suspenseful and delightfully creepy. Read more
Ray Conlogue, Globe and Mail: A rocking good entertainment. Read more
John Anderson, Newsday: Set within his petit bourgeois universe, Harry is eminently believable, a character whose largesse is as seductive as his personality is not. And whose concept of friendship is the raw ore of nightmares. Read more
Peter Rainer, New York Magazine/Vulture: Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: A more energetic and interesting entry than what one has come to expect from this overpopulated genre. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: Movies like this are more intriguing than thrillers where the heroes and villains wear name tags. Read more
Bob Graham, San Francisco Chronicle: Anybody so inclined can connect the dots, and they lead not only to the weirdly seductive Robert Walker in Hitchcock's Strangers on a Train but to the sudden, luminous interiors of Kubrick's The Shining, with their air of unreality. Read more
Brendan Kelly, Variety: Moll masterfully weaves together Hitchcockian thriller elements and brainy comedy to create an original film that's never less than surprising. Read more
J. Hoberman, Village Voice: Reasonably nifty. Read more
Rita Kempley, Washington Post: All of the actors are persuasive. Read more
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post: Very funny, in that morbid sort of way that makes you laugh even as you shudder with horror. Read more
