Leave your thoughts about Sharper.
| ObserverRex ReedOne of the classiest intellectual thrillers in ages. |
| We Got This CoveredMartin CarrPiled high with plot twists and packed full of peerless performances, Sharper brings together Sebastian Stan, Julianne Moore, and John Lithgow in a brooding long con thriller from Apple. Delivering something fresh from the streaming service, which continues to champion originality without limits. |
| Washington PostMichael O'SullivanIn the case of Sharper, we’re treated to puzzle boxes within puzzle boxes, each one delivered in sequential chapters — titled after the film’s main characters, Tom, Sandra, Max and Madeline — and unpacked, initially in reverse chronological order, with satisfying, if somewhat predictable, style and suspense. If you’re seeking substance, look elsewhere. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperAn enjoyable and slick little thriller with a brilliant cast of actors clearly having a good time sinking their teeth into the salacious material. |
| Austin ChronicleSteve DavisSharper ticks so assuredly in execution the hitches won’t distract you – and that may be the biggest con of all. |
| The GuardianPeter BradshawLike the luxury goods that in one scene we see being stolen, the performances are out of the top drawer, and it is a great pleasure to see Moore on such good form: no one cries more needily, and with more nakedly sinister intent, than her. |
| Vanity FairRichard LawsonSharper is sinewy and clever, a keenly acted and written B-picture of the sort that were once myriad but now only come around once every few years. |
| The TelegraphTim RobeyThe endgame could be… sharper. There’s an elaborate hoax that’s too easy to suss out – even for us, and we’re not the seasoned con artists on the receiving end. At this point, the film’s own confidence seems to falter just a fraction. Then again, the chinks in these crooks’ cynical armour are what give it texture, a mottling of human desperation. Instead of smug gotchas, it traffics in mistakes. |
| ConsequenceMary SirokySharper is an incredibly entertaining entry into the canon of Apple Originals. While it might not have the threshold of darkness or intensity that classify it exactly as a neo-noir, this film is a thoroughly enjoyable mystery. While these characters here might be lying and cheating their way to victory, Sharper comes out on top on its own merits. |
| The Associated PressJake CoyleA slinky, slick caper that finds ways to distort expectations while unfolding a puzzle-box narrative. |
