Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A model of clean, lean storytelling.
– Steve Murray,
Atlanta Journal-Constitution,
2 Oct 2005
fresh:
A remarkably convincing examination of heroism, hero worship, and the seductive allure of villainy.
– Ken Tucker,
New York Magazine/Vulture,
12 May 2006
fresh:
This peculiarly predictable picture has been calculated, or miscalculated, to set up certain expectations, fulfill them, and then do the same thing again, thereby giving us a chance to see what's coming and, at least in theory, be shocked.
– Joe Morgenstern,
Wall Street Journal,
15 Apr 2013
fresh:
Cronenberg's direction, mirroring the split in Tom, is alternately measured and frighteningly explosive, and, as always, he gives the movie a nasty underlay of sexual perversity.
– David Denby,
New Yorker,
15 Apr 2013
fresh:
The less you know about this movie before seeing it -- and you really should see it -- the better.
– Christy Lemire,
