Movie Reviews

The Associated Press - 9/10 by Bob ThomasThere are splendid economies, too: Rogers' mirrored dressing-room registers first as a social humiliation for the cop, who can't find the exit, but later his intimacy with her surroundings gives him an edge over a killer. There's little waste, though the thriller element could have been tuned up a bit.
Chicago Reader - 8/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumWhile the actors show some sensitivity and Scott works up a modicum of suspense and involvement, the real interest of this picture is the radiance of the images—a mastery of lighting and decor second only to Scott's Blade Runner, with atmospheric textures so dense you can almost taste them. Unfortunately, this mastery bears only the most glancing relationship to the story at hand, and Scott becomes guilty of the sort of formalism that used to be charged (less justly) against Josef von Sternberg. But even though the movie doesn't leave much of a residue, it looks terrific while you're watching it: Manhattan has seldom appeared as glitzy or as glamorous.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Jay ScottThe movie is exciting, richly textured. But, despite its high quality, there’s something unformed about it, like a poem that doesn’t quite sing, a painting with a color missing...Even if Someone to Watch Over Me is flawed, it’s the kind of film that offers you many subsidiary pleasures.
Time Out - 6/10 by Derek AdamsMost of New York, indoors and out, looks about as good as the Chrysler Building in Scott's gleaming fusion of eternal triangle and killer-on-the-loose.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Rita KempleyWhat with these pictorial pollutants, he loses sight of plot. "Someone" suffers somewhat from Scott's blind spot, but it's still a reasonably enjoyable romantic thriller with "Platoon's" Tom Berenger on his best behavior.
eFilmCritic.com - 6/10 by Scott WeinbergScott's visual prowess overwhelms a paper-thin premise.
Tampa Bay Times - 6/10 by Hal LipperThe makers of this film got so carried away by their High Concept that they missed the point of the whole story.
Miami Herald - 5/10 by Hal BoedekerHoward Franklin's screenplay plays less like a feature film than like the pilot for a failed television series about New York policemen.
Chicago Tribune - 5/10 by Dave KehrBerenger and Rogers look right and move right, but there is no spark behind the emotions they dutifully mime. Shading is something the director reserves for inanimate objects: He makes things come alive and turns people flat.
eFilmCritic.com - 5/10 by Brian MckayIntriguing cop thriller, with Lorraine Bracco stealing the show as the tough cop's wife.
