      Tara Brady Irish Times The Treatment is relentlessly sad in tone, utterly vile in content, and brilliantly effective in delivery. Rated: 4/5 Mar 2, 2016 Full Review Mark Kermode Observer (UK) Horribly convincing performances add exploitative heft, while Johan Van Essche's production design makes the Boschian hell seem all too real. Rated: 3/5 Aug 23, 2015 Full Review Kate Muir Times (UK) The Treatment brought me close to a panicked run for the cinema door on a number of occasions, but I held steady through this compelling and horrifying police search for a Belgian paedophile. Rated: 4/5 Aug 20, 2015 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Van Rampelberg gives an enthralling performance. Rated: 3.5/4.0 Sep 26, 2020 Full Review Rosalynn Try-Hane Battle Royale With Cheese The Treatment is a visceral, engaging and gut wrenching thriller of the first degree that will keep you on the edge of your seat right until the very end. Aug 22, 2018 Full Review Alan Jones Radio Times A bleak, uncompromising look into the brutal death of innocence. Rated: 4/5 Aug 20, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

      Alina Laura C The worst movie I have seen in at least a decade. Better off watching a regular horror movie...or a commercial....or watching grass grow...in the winter. Long, vomit-inducing and nightmarish...it is hard to remember the last time a "police mistery thriller" was so much of a horror... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Liam D This Thriller is an underrated gem and I highly recommend it so much if your able to stomach the shocking themes Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/22 Full Review Audience Member Wow! This one is unforgettable! Well written and acted. Horrifying. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review troy k Intense movie, but the subject matter is pretty sickening. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It's an excellent criminal investigation thriller that gets under your skin due to the subject matter. It's not your ordinary criminal manhunt that follows the oft used cliche blueprint which fails to affect the viewer. Anyone watching this will thoroughly despise the villain due to his horrific actions (both past and present). The main cop conducting the investigation more often than not crosses the line during his job of duty. It's understandable due to his past, but it still rubbed me the wrong way. The acting is really really good from all parties involved... the grimy characters come across as seedy and dirty, the victims evoke a true sense of empathy, the cops (most of them) are our heroes, etc. The atmosphere the movie creates is really tense. It utilizes the score and the cinematography to create that atmosphere. And even though I've praised so many different aspects of the movie already, enough can't be said about the ending. It was the perfect ending and leaves you with a haunting feeling. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member I didn't like not saving the brother.
