Ed Gonzalez Slant Magazine Seeing as the film lacks momentum and its position remains mostly undeterminable, the director's experiment is a successful one. Rated: 2/4 Sep 27, 2002 Full Review Jurgen Fauth About.com Takes itself much too seriously. Rated: 2/5 Oct 15, 2003 Full Review Josh Ralske All Movie Guide The philosophical musings of the dialogue jar against the tawdry soap opera antics of the film's action in a way that is surprisingly enjoyable. Rated: 6/10 Feb 2, 2003 Full Review Rachel Gordon Filmcritic.com Though excessively tiresome, The Uncertainty Principle, as verbally pretentious as the title may be, has its handful of redeeming features, as long as you discount its ability to bore. Rated: 2/5 Oct 1, 2002 Full Review Arthur Lazere culturevulture.net Dense and enigmatic...elusive...stagy and stilted Sep 30, 2002 Full Review Read all reviews
