Fortunately, Turturro's subtle turn keeps our emotional connection solid even when the story skates on thin ice.
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Rotten
The story, in the end, is less than satisfying and, unfortunately, doesn't match the movie's eerie style.
John McMurtrie, San Francisco Chronicle

With an elliptical style and open-ended interpretations, it is definitely not for those who like their mysteries spelled out and tied up neatly.
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

Grimly austere barely begins to describe the atmosphere of dread that seeps through Fear X like a toxic mist.
Stephen Holden, New York Times
