Movie Reviews

Philadelphia Inquirer - 10/10 by Steven ReaA beautiful, head-spinning mystery that requires keen attention - and rewards it with a tricky and poetic payoff - The Double Hour is a topflight Euro thriller right up there with "Tell No One."
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael PhillipsI've seen the fabulously acted Italian thriller The Double Hour twice now, and for all its intricate manipulations, it stays with me for a very simple reason: The love story at its bittersweet heart is played for keeps.
MUBI - 9/10 by Fernando F. CroceAs directed by Giuseppe Capotondi with little more than a chilled eye for sleek surfaces, the rug-pulling games make for mental chewing gum that quickly loses its flavor.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzSuffers from being too clever for its own good and too manipulative.
Chicago Reader - 9/10 by Ben SachsAs the heroine, Rappoport creates an exquisite, multifaceted character from the old film noir archetype of a woman in flight; in this case she's fleeing not only danger but herself.
Monsters and Critics - 9/10 by Ron WilkinsonSteamy Italian giallo in the finest tradition of film noir. Twists, turns and tension to the end.
Filmcritic.com - 9/10 by Chris Cabinan erotic, playful, but far less assured variation on the heady experiential labyrinth that Adrian Lyne sent Tim Robbins through in his excellent 1990 meta-thriller Jacob's Ladder.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 9/10 by Colin CovertCapotondi's nerve-shredding puzzler will delight fans of Hitchcock and Polanski.
Capital Times (Madison, WI) - 9/10 by Rob ThomasEvery 10 minutes, writer-director Giuseppe Capotondi reshuffles his narrative deck of cards and deals the audience a completely new hand. Just when you think you're ahead of the game, you've been played for a sucker.
Entertainment Spectrum - 9/10 by Keith CohenDon't let anyone spill the beans and tell you too much before you get a chance to sit through all the twists and turns in this mind-blowing experience.
