John Pym Sight & Sound Charlotte Rampling gives a stylish, strikingly uncaricatured performance, which becomes truly remarkable when, at the end, she manages to stoke our sympathy for this coolly amoral murderess. Jan 16, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

nick s This wasn't a bad movie and, but for a few patches, the acting was pretty good. I just couldn't get invested in the story. I don't know if it was the spartan music score, the lack of drama or the lack of scene cohesiveness, but I found it a chore. And the director should have invested in stunt doubles!
