While some of Buxton’s writing can be a little blunt... we’re kept firmly in his grip because, like a car crash itself, we can’t stop staring at how horrifying it is and we’re curious to see how much worse it might get.

Rated: 4/5

Mashable

A smart premise is poignantly brought to life by Foster and Smulders, making for a psychological thriller that is nerve-rattlingly tense and a family drama that is unapologetically gutting.

Screen International

The film does not give up its mysteries easily, but some fine performances and a carefully maintained tone keep viewers riveted -- all in the name of a disquieting exploration of how people find scraps of meaning in their empty lives.

But soon darkness starts to gather, and before long a story that has started out in the unexciting suburbs of Toronto takes a left turn into Hell.

Still, for thriller fans unaware of Foster’s filmography, Sharp Corner’s proficient qualities will make for an amiable watch.
