The film's didactic indifference also makes it unclear whether Stephen ups the ante or gets his comeuppance in the end.

Bring a date, because you'll need to talk this one through.
Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out New York

Losey and Pinter locate the pain that lurks deep within complacency, and the film positively throbs with it. It's an old idea, perhaps. But in their hands it hurts anew.
Calum Marsh, Village Voice

'Accident' now seems a little self-conscious in its modernist, 'quality' art-cinema pretensions.
