Empire Magazine Rated: 2/5 Sep 16, 2005 Full Review Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle A complicated and stylish Korean thriller that will make viewers' skin crawl. Rated: 3/4 Nov 30, 2001 Full Review Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times For all its style and assurance, Tell Me Something is not ultimately original enough to sustain its many horrific images, however brief they may be. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 9, 2001 Full Review Jason Gorber Film Scouts A stylish serial killer film, there nonetheless was too much talk and not enough madness. Rated: D+ Jun 21, 2007 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews The Grand Guignol effects seemed more grim than convincing. Rated: C Mar 20, 2003 Full Review Joshua Tanzer Offoffoff Has strong characters and a gruesomely intriguing plot but doesn't wrap up its central mystery convincingly.

Audience Member creepy dark & grisly comes this serial killer tale from Korea. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member A stylish thriller that is not afraid to venture into gruesome territory. It does a good job building up suspense, but there are perhaps too many plot twists towards the end. I do like movies that end on ambiguous note, but this one seems to overdo it a bit, definitely achieving the goal of confusing the audience. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The Great Thriller film and Ending it so PEAK. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member "A grisly, dark bit of entertainment." "A complicated and stylish Korean thriller that will make viewers' skin crawl." Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the worst thrillers i have ever seen. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Another gory Korean crime thriller. Predictable plot, but still a good movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
