Romantic obsession at its two extremes is explored with sympathy and intelligence in the thriller The Secret in Their Eyes...
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Fresh
Although it has some memorably disquieting scenes, this story of long-delayed justice is sustained by its melancholy more than its thrills.
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Fresh
Campanella approaches the material with a classic hand -- no quick cuts, special effects or gimmicks here. This is a flesh-and-blood movie, and both Darin and Villamil bring earthy presence to the story.
Tom Long, Detroit News
Fresh
The entire film is stocked with images that reflect a character and story in flux.
