Leave your thoughts about Looking Glass.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperThe director of the film is Tim Hunter, whose feature career goes back to such 1980s gems as “Tex” and “River’s Edge,” and whose TV credits include everything from episodes of the original “Twin Peaks” to “Mad Men.” That explains why it’s such a good-looking film. Nicolas Cage’s starring presence explains why it’s such a compelling and offbeat little thriller. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliThere are some problems but most are related to the uneven screenplay and not the performances of Cage or his co-star, Robin Tunney. |
| The A.V. ClubJesse HassengerBecause Hunter’s movie works best in its early, less crazed stretch, there aren’t any really memorable sequences here coming from the director or his distinctive star. |
| The PlaylistEli FineLooking Glass is a hybrid Coen-pastiche and wacky Nic Cage B-movie. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreLooking Glass fails to be anything more than another make-work project for the cinema’s busiest actor, a man with bills to pay and a conviction that the Devil finds work for idle hands. It’s just that sometimes, it’s better to leave those hands idle than to take whatever the next offer you can squeeze in might be. |
| Slant MagazineDerek SmithThere's no follow-through or follow-up on how the main character's voyeurism informs his burgeoning sexual perversions. |
| RogerEbert.comGlenn KennyThe plot’s central mystery suffers from “Body Double” syndrome in that the movie has so few characters that the villain’s reveal can only elicit a shrug. |
| The Film StageJared MobarakWhile the execution of every weak excuse for a twist and turn is really the culprit behind Looking Glass‘ failure, I would be remiss to not point a finger at Cage too. |
| IndiewireEric KohnSomewhere in this material is the potential for tense exploration of private desires afflicting people enmeshed in extreme psychological disarray, but this sleepy drama never approaches the sophistication (or pulpy fun) that would allow it to succeed on that mission. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckConsidering its lurid story arc and troubled characters, the film almost feels tamped down as Hunter strives to create an atmosphere of mystery and slow-burning tension. What he delivers instead is tedium, where even the climactic reveal proves both underwhelming and predictable. |
