Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Poorly scripted by Akiva Goldsman, this murder mystery (helmed by Bruce Beresford) represents an awkward synthesis of autism and family abuse as social problems, failing to deliver suspense or excitement on any level.
– Emanuel Levy,

rotten:
So predictable that you would almost swear you'd seen it before.
– Hal Hinson,
Washington Post,
1 Jan 2000
rotten:
It's the kind of picture that results when a film maker loses sight of the fact that a portion of his audience might actually think while watching a movie.
– James Berardinelli,
ReelViews,
1 Jan 2000
rotten:
Silent Fall, a dramatically repressed psychodrama, could be sued for creative malpractice.
– Desson Thomson,
Washington Post,
1 Jan 2000
rotten:
Beresford draws the best from a fine cast. Only when he tries to up the thrill quotient near the end are the contrivances of Akiva Goldsman's debut script revealed, like cracks in the smooth surface of a frozen lake.
