Top critics, in their words

All reviews
Fresh

A prickly, twisted, mean-spirited, borderline crazy and highly seductive picture.

Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com
Fresh

This 2004 French feature seems concerned not so much with the psychopathology of everyday life as with psychopaths who lurk behind the everyday.

Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Fresh

Chabrol arranges his story with a subtle, almost clinical accumulation. And it takes close attention to the movie's seemingly innocuous details to understand his deeper purposes.

Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Fresh

Entering his sixth decade, Chabrol remains a master inspector of the criminal heart of the French bourgeoisie.

Bill Stamets, Chicago Sun-Times
Fresh

A superbly unsettling crime drama about a seemingly ordinary family, ravaged by passions that descend on them like a plague.

Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune
