What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Secrets We Keep handles its more serious themes indelicately, but manages to offer some entertaining -- albeit implausible -- B-movie thrills.

Kevin Maher Times (UK) The central dilemma, nonetheless, is so compelling that it smooths over the imperfections. And the final shots are satisfying and chilling. Rated: 4/5 May 17, 2021 Full Review Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) Rapace... lifts the picture above its more formulaic instincts. Rated: 3/5 May 13, 2021 Full Review Leslie Felperin Guardian All in all, it's an engaging if pulpy drama. Rated: 3/5 May 12, 2021 Full Review Francesca Steele iNews.co.uk Yuval Adler's film strains to examine deeply-rooted trauma, but feels too chaotic to probe such serious themes properly. Rated: 2/5 Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies It’s still very much a genre film albeit one that is well acted, consistently entertaining, and that dabbles in its themes more than explores them. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 25, 2022 Full Review Cris Kennedy The Canberra Times (Australia) It isn't Norman Rockwell-perfect, it is equal parts fresh paint and damaged people, and that felt honest. Rated: 4/5 Aug 16, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Weston J What a horrible cop out of an ending. It was good up until a point; had all of your class conflict issues: rich and powerful v poor and weak. But really? How does it end? It ends in ... well, shite. It was a shite ending. It was a shite ending because it felt like another episode was impending. The story wasn't finished. Such a missed opportunity for some ambiguous ending that held the rich family 'partially' accountable. But it doesn't even attempt some kind of quasi-redepmtive ending. Looking out into the sea: utter trash. Yeah, it brings the story's image back to the beginning, but it's garbage. It made me wanting for so much more. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/24/25 Full Review Dallas H I have not seen this exact movie before. But for the entire viewing, I kept thinking that I could have sworn I'd seen the story's emotional spirit, visual tone, and plot point structure appear in a substantial handful of other movies. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/19/24 Full Review Eddie S Well it earns B movie status for its blinding errors, far-fetched action and over indulgence of such a coincidence. But all it would of taken is a quick glance under the suspected former SS officers left armpit to settle the dilemma of his military status. All SS members had their blood type tattooed there or the remnant of a scar where they had it cut out after the WW2 victors hunted them down. All in all it was still well acted and well paced. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/20/24 Full Review Jerry F I watched this movie because I'm a fan of Joel Kinnaman but I felt more anxious than entertained. Keeps going on and on with the same and nothing seems to happen until the very end, while she smokes her head off. I guess is not my cup of tea. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/17/24 Full Review Joe W Well acted. Interesting story. I was entertained. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Stoner J This is a fairly thrilling torture flick Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
