Jay Weissberg Variety 05/04/2006
As a lesson in how subtle acting styles can calm a highly pitched story, pic delivers the goods. Go to Full Review Kam Williams Sly Fox 07/09/2009
2.5/4
A thought-provoking mindbender unfolding in one room and narrowly focused on a grisly, gradually-escalating standoff. Go to Full Review Erik Childress eFilmCritic.com 07/05/2006
2.5/4
The film is just average, a bit manipulative and is little more than a stagy adaptation of a play which never existed featuring more of a battle of the accents rather than will. Go to Full Review Pablo Villaça Cinema em Cena 04/26/2006

11/11/2020 Terrible. One of the worst films ive ever seen. Completely unsatisfactory ending. See more 09/13/2019 excelente película, grandes actores, no es de Oscar pero si un buen thriller con un final nada esperado See more 04/29/2018 Boring movie with no payoff. It’s all dialogue but none of it is interesting to listen to. And with a predictable ending that is honestly just more of a frustrating, confusing ending, this just ends up just feeling like a frustrating and waste of time movie See more 11/17/2017 About as good as Philippe’s Dutch accent See more 04/22/2014 A thrilling and intense film, with a disturbing twist. See more Frances H 01/22/2014 Interesting, but I saw the "twist" ending coming about halfway through. See more Read all reviews
