Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
[The film is] strongest when Huppert is plying her sordid trade, her face a cracking mask of emotional devastation.
– Colin Covert,
Minneapolis Star Tribune,
18 Mar 2004
rotten:
Even Huppert can only do so much to sustain a phony weepie about the impromptu parent-child road trip that occurs after Sylvia's estranged teenage daughter 'accidentally' kills one of Mom's brutal pimps.
– Scott Foundas,
L.A. Weekly,
15 Apr 2004
fresh:
It all does come down to Huppert with this film, to the moods, emotional states and character moments she can create, to the delicate magic she can work on screen.
– Kenneth Turan,
Los Angeles Times,
15 Apr 2004
fresh:
Like an old Hollywood star vehicle, this French import does its job, providing its lead actress with compelling emotional circumstances and its audience with arresting contexts through which to perceive her.
– Mick LaSalle,
San Francisco Chronicle,
23 Apr 2004
rotten:
There is nothing [Huppert] can't do -- except save Promise from the valley of the shadow of bad French movie pretensions.
– Ty Burr,
Boston Globe,
