Wesley Morris Boston Globe The movie doesn't trust that an illuminating comedy of pathetic people can be entertaining for long, so it sprinkles some hormones on the proceedings. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 13, 2007 Full Review Mark Holcomb Time Out The film loses some of its sting once the race narrows, but its outcome and the politically, emotionally astute fade-out are suitably devastating. Jul 12, 2007 Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz New York Times The Method is a funny film that touches on a corporation's responsibility to society, the price of ambition and the persistence of workplace sexism. Rated: 4/5 Jul 6, 2007 Full Review Beth Accomando KPBS.org Based on a stage play by Jordi Galcern, The Method delivers a darkly comic take on corporate competitiveness. Rated: 6/10 Aug 18, 2007 Full Review Ted Murphy Murphy's Movie Reviews Undoubtedly some enterprising American film company will either undertake a remake or will pitch it as a new reality show ... Rated: B Jul 14, 2007 Full Review Chris Barsanti Filmcritic.com the hollowness of it all becomes deafening Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 8, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Very good drama, with a very complex script and characters. ~August 23, 2016~ Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Clever Spanish movie, especially how much Cinema can be derived from a small space. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Too pretentious that is impossible to not feeling disappointment after the outcome. It reminds also the penchant of film makers from Mexico and Spain to fill storytelling gaps with unnecessary sex scenes. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member An intriguing and thoughtful thriller of the best kind. Basically taking place in just one room, the dialogue and layered characters keep the viewers on edge for the entirity of the running time. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member una buena historia de la mediocridad humana, de la hipocrecia y la falsedad con tal de conseguir algo sobre los demas. Lo bueno es que esta bien actuada, lo malo es que se estira demasiado y se nota que es una obra de teatro llevada a la pantalla grande Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member 'The Method' is smart, well-written and well-acted. An all-round enjoyable experience. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
