Leave your thoughts about Mortal Thoughts.
| Orlando SentinelJay BoyarAlan Rudolph’s Mortal Thoughts is a movie just like the true crime stories I enjoy the most. |
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonThe three main performances are uniformly good. Moore maintains a believable air of normalcy pushed into unusual directions. Headly is marvelously kooky, a victim with sporadic moments of spunk. Willis clearly has a blast playing evil unbound. He's disconcertingly good, a whirl of Method-acting menace and goateed aggression. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerWilliam ArnoldAs a domestic melodrama, the film sometimes plays like The Honeymooners without the laughs, but the push and pull between the flashbacks and the interrogation scenes gain steadily in strength as the case gets harder to pin down. There’s more to these characters—and this movie—than initially meets the eye. |
| MovieholeClint MorrisBruce Willis is rather terrifying.....a man of many faces indeed |
| Tampa Bay TimesHal LipperMortal Thoughts has strong moments, but fails to keep you riveted to the end. |
| EmpirePhilip ThomasAfter the global success of Ghost, Demi Moore consolidates here with a diametrically-opposed follow-up, not only proving her willingness to eschew the many Ghost-alikes that have inevitably come her way, but also allowing her to show genuine versatility in the thespian-prowess department. |
| The New York TimesJanet MaslinMortal Thoughts has a good cast and a lot to recommend it, but what it doesn't have is the kind of dramatic payoff that makes so much extended buildup and explanation seem worthwhile. |
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenThe script is awash with uncertainties -- some intriguing, some frustrating. The wildly uneven director Rudolph also must shoulder some of the blame. What cannot be underestimated in Mortal Thoughts are the performances. Absolutely extraordinary all the way around. Disappointments don't come more intriguingly packaged than in Mortal Thoughts. |
| Los Angeles TimesPeter RainerDirected by Alan Rudolph (Choose Me), this tedious film, rife with flashbacks and slow-motion sequences that underscore the already overbearing plot and exaggerated characters, fails both as a mystery and as a statement on marital violence. |
| Washington PostRita KempleyThe moviemakers have set out to interpret the inner workings of abusive relationships in their boundless variety. Alas, their ambitions are far grander than their abilities. |
