Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Aims for genuine discomfort, and it hits the mark with intelligence and style.
The subject matter is queasy, but Radha Mitchell ... is pitch perfect as Angie.
Despite an evocatively dark-toned DV atmosphere, is too responsible to erupt into the kind of operatic maternal horror it keeps threatening the audience with.
[Foster] shoots this rather grim film like a pretentious horror flick.
