      Audience Member On the surface, Young's adaptation of Pomerantz novel feels like a variation of Postman Always Rings Twice, but setting the story in Jersey in a Latino working class milieu and adding Oedipal elements separate his film from the yarn's other versions Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member "Poignant. Obssevive! Downright Scintilatting". Caught is a film Noir, that you hope to not get "Caught" watching. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member "Poignant. Obssevive! Downright Scintilatting". Caught is a film Noir, that you hope to not get "Caught" watching. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member The most literal interpretation of the Oedipus Complex that I've seen so far (I havent yet seen David O' Russell's 'Spanking The Monkey'). On paper this would seem like the worst kind of salacious incest flick, but the actors are excellent here and the director keeps it real and engaging enough. Slightly disturbing. The ending is tepid, though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member very powerful movie ... the chemistry between Nick and Betty is palpable, strong emotions, dangerous ground. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member a nice film noir. Arie Verveen is great. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      James Berardinelli ReelViews Rated: 3/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times This looks like the setup for a story of proletarian bliss, but in fact Caught is the most carnal of recent movies, a film that reminds us how movies used to take sex seriously, instead of using it as an excuse for muscular choreography.
