Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A flawed film that's well worth seeing.
– Tom Long,
Detroit News,
21 Jan 2005
fresh:
To watch this picture is to feel, and what you're feeling is an intense swirl of conflicting emotions -- disturbed, creeped-out, sorry, and, yes, even moved.
– Rick Groen,
Globe and Mail,
21 Jan 2005
rotten:
An involving, intense but ultimately confused portrait.
– Geoff Pevere,
Toronto Star,
21 Jan 2005
rotten:
[Ms. Kassell and Mr. Fechter] trick up Walter's character with so many conflicting moods and impulses and then place him within a post-prison society that is itself alternately oppressive and permissive.
– Andrew Sarris,
New York Observer,
27 Jan 2005
fresh:
A lean and unapologetic piece about a type of person too often rendered in simplistic 'monster' colors.
– Roger Moore,
Orlando Sentinel,
