Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Humorless, charmless and flat.

rotten:
This movie isn't a disaster, but, all things considered, there's little reason to make it a high priority for theatrical viewing.

fresh:
Exciting, smart and enormously enjoyable.

rotten:
Every effect is so calculated that only the conscious minds of filmmakers and viewers are engaged--and not by very much or for very long.
– Jonathan Rosenbaum,

rotten:
It's the worst kind of convoluted thriller -- it can never unravel satisfactorily because there's nothing simple at its center, just more confusion.
