Phil Hoad Guardian Maíllo, making his English-language debut, effortlessly sustains the tension and sprinkles in some dinky visual touches... Rated: 3/5 Jun 29, 2021 Full Review Carla Monfort Espinof An interesting adaptation of Amélie Nothomb's novel that falters towards the end, but, all in all, it's an extremely enjoyable tour de force between the protagonists. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Jan 17, 2023 Full Review Alix Turner Horror Obsessive One of those psychological thrillers that builds up so slowly that it doesn't even look like a thriller at first. Rated: 3/5 Sep 8, 2021 Full Review Sergio F. Pinilla Cinemanía (Spain) We knew the gimmick, deployed in recent times by film fiction magicians such as Fincher, Lynch or Polanski... the story works again. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Aug 16, 2021 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix A Perfect Enemy keeps a certain level of suspense, but too much of this psychological thriller is undone by subpar acting, dialogue that rambles, and a sluggish pace during the middle of the movie. The movie's ending is a big disappointment. Jul 16, 2021 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher Ridiculous excuse for a thriller - obvious, preposterous, ultimately banal - piles on psychological absurdities as it builds from a maddening middle to an enraging crescendo of misogynist nonsense. Rated: 1/5 Jul 15, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Michael S I thought the acting was great. The storyline needed some work though IMO. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/22/24 Full Review Regina P Didn't make sense until the end. I really didn't see it coming. I had guesses, but I was off. Good way to pass a lazy afternoon. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/24/24 Full Review Ra H I enjoyed it. Kept my attention. Good actors. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/05/23 Full Review avindu g Perfect Enemy dives bravely into the abyss of it's subject passing the shallows known before and emerge victorious with a satisfactory but unsettling revelation. Flawless realistic performance by cast the entire time nails it at manifesting the perfect beast in holy robes. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Morgan D A tense, if predictable, thriller with compelling direction and visuals. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/28/22 Full Review Audience Member no me termino de convencer 4/10 Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
