Movie Reviews

Hollywood Reporter - 9/10 by John DeForeThe movie's structure is peculiar, laying out a mystery and solving it early on, then spending half the film making us wonder how satisfying that solution was.
Combustible Celluloid - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonMay seem superficial, until you consider that this is also the life of actors.
The Film Stage - 9/10 by Dan MeccaArmed with two top-notch leads and a compelling premise, Joshua Marston‘s third feature, Complete Unknown, spends a lot of time hinting at which direction it will go, without going anywhere at all.
Reeling Reviews - 8/10 by Laura CliffordWeisz and Shannon are two fine actors, so it is a pleasure to watch them, but Marston works too hard to make his marginal point.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kenneth TuranAn intriguing entertainment that’s invigorated by smart filmmaking and potent acting by the virtuosic Weisz and her fine costar, Michael Shannon.
Christian Science Monitor - 8/10 by Peter RainerShannon is usually playing human question marks in the movies, so it's a twist here to see him playing the "normal" guy, except Shannon is too unconventional an actor to play anything in the normal range.
Chicago Reader - 8/10 by J. R. JonesWriter-director Joshua Marston gives Shannon a chance to shine as a character more pedestrian than the ones he usually plays, though the story is a little too thesis driven to build any dramatic momentum.
East Bay Express - 8/10 by Kelly VanceYou can't attempt this type of actor's exercise with just anyone.
Under the Radar - 8/10 by Charles SteinbergIn the hands of actors this studied and sure, the gamut of conflicting and burrowed emotions is displayed with elegant reserve. It would be a shame if the film went the way of its title.
Paste Magazine - 8/10 by Tim GriersonAlice is someone who's unwise to fall in love with. But Weisz makes it clear why such a person, so volatile and untethered, is so damn hard to resist.
