Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A striking, brilliant film with extraordinary performances -- and Huppert's acting is heartrending.
– Michael Wilmington,

fresh:
It is as unlikely that you have ever seen another movie like The Piano Teacher as it is that you will ever want to see another one.

fresh:
A gripping psychological thriller that, while lacking the power of Funny Games, is still the work of a master.
– Marta Barber,
Miami Herald,
30 Aug 2002
rotten:
It is depressing, ruthlessly pained and depraved, the movie equivalent of staring into an open wound.
– Roger Moore,
Orlando Sentinel,
19 Sep 2002
fresh:
This is a penetrating, deeply disturbing examination of desire and loneliness, of desperation and self-denial.
– Eleanor Ringel Gillespie,
