Very cool.

Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

The key here is to keep things moving without letting the logical (or illogical) complications weigh down the action, and [director] Vigalondo does this well.

Tom Long, Detroit News

The director operates his metaphysical contraption with enough wit to jolt away your skepticism.

Wesley Morris, Boston Globe

The modest satisfactions of Timecrimes come down to a protagonist divided against himself.

Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune

Timecrimes is like a temporal chess game with nudity, voyeurism and violence, which makes it more boring than most chess games but less boring than a lot of movies.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
