Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A spellbinder with a lot of Hitchcock touches and an Ennio Morricone score to match.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
15 Aug 2008
rotten:
Plays like a cross between Hitchcock and tabloid feminism, a mix that shouldn't work and doesn't.
– Ty Burr,
Boston Globe,
19 Sep 2008
rotten:
The film has major problems blending the strong social theme of exploitation and white slavery with Tornatore's noirish screenplay, full of holes and improbabilities.
– Deborah Young,
Variety,
18 Oct 2008
rotten:
The Unknown Woman falters when it falls into exploitation and fatal contrivance.
– Ann Hornaday,
Washington Post,
23 Oct 2008
fresh:
Tornatore, best known for Cinema Paradiso, has meticulously crafted a story that's at times so raw it hurts to watch. Its action blends piercingly lit flashbacks and dream sequences with a gray, prosaic present in an unnamed Italian city.
– Moira MacDonald,
Seattle Times,
