Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Originality has never been a high value in the genre-bound aesthetic of filmmaking, but De Palma cheapens what he steals.

Despite some major structural weaknesses, the cannily manipulated combination of mystery, gore and kinky sex adds up to a slick commercial package.

DePalma is not yet an artist of Hitchcock's stature, but he does earn the right to a comparison.

rotten:
Ultimately, the film amounts to little more than a consummate study of suspense technique, all dressed up with nowhere to go.
