Scott Foundas Variety 09/13/2005
A decidedly cold, protracted work marked by solid, but passionless performances and a preference for polished, fashion-magazine imagery. Go to Full Review Kirk Honeycutt The Hollywood Reporter 09/09/2005
For all its literary references, the thing certainly looks like a shallow though slick French melodrama. Go to Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy 03/05/2022

The spectre of Kieslowski flutters through the film, but his eye and touch aren't there%u2014it's hard to watch L'Enfer without wondering, what would he have done? Go to Full Review Urban Cinefile Critics Urban Cinefile 06/05/2006
The characters fascinate yet confuse. Surprisingly, the film keeps us at arms length. On reflection, I enjoyed the film more after it had finished, when I could dip back into this claustrophobic world and relive the unfolding of events in my mind. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

04/23/2015 The script is surprisingly the weakest link, with contrivances and melodramatics piling up after the beautiful and restrained first act. I really liked Tanovic's direction though, it's rhythmically and aesthetically compelling. A shame that what he's shooting sometimes gets a little silly.

See more 10/30/2012 The second instalment of Kieslowski Purgatory trilogy only leaves you wishing the Polish master were still alive and kicking with an annoying score that might still have him turning on his grave. RIP Kieslowski, you are still missed! See more 06/06/2012 Encore ce cré cinéma français qui tente de se donner des allures à la polonaise. Sincèrement, l'adaptation d'un pays à un autre est quand même bien potable dans ce volet de la dernière trilogie de Kieslowski. La brochette des trois actrices principales se veut délectable, et on ne peut que n'en redemander de la part d'Emmanuelle Béart et de Karin Viard. Les Krzysztof avaient alors explorés l'univers de l'enfer vis-à-vis la routine de l'humanité. On passe donc par tous les vices; amoureux et familiaux jusqu'à s'étendre aux confins de l'enfer sexuel et identitaire. See more 09/05/2010 pseudo- kieślowo- metafizyczno- gówno.
