This one doesn't go on the list of great recent European thrillers, but it's engrossing, and in the character of Martine/Candice, it touches real poignancy.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Fresh

It's an enjoyable way to spend 100 or so minutes, but once it ends, it might make a disappearing act from memory.

Stephanie Merry, Washington Post
Rotten

"Nobody Else But You" takes a novel concept and a willing leading lady and squanders both through drab, lifeless storytelling.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten

The enduring mythology of Monroe enters the story as a mildly engaging echo and turns into an all-consuming avalanche, leaving out in the cold much of what feels fresh and appealing about the film.

Sheri Linden, Los Angeles Times
Fresh

A playful French meta-mystery that's occasionally too proud of its own cleverness.

Ty Burr, Boston Globe
