An exercise in sober drama and a middle-class cautionary tale which explores a family ripped up by the roots after the rape of a 14-year-old girl.

Audiences most definitely will squirm and wish they were anywhere but in the theater, despite the fact that it features some of Clive Owen's best work and a startling movie debut by the 15-year-old Liana Liberato.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

What Trust conveys, at its best, is that ultimately parental protections are not foolproof, and that is the greatest horror of all.

Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor

Schwimmer directs this smarmy Hot Topic drama with empathy for the craft of acting but less interest in the craft of making a movie move.

Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
Rotten

Prurient, ham-handed and amateurish.
