Boxoffice Magazine

This film is only for those with strong constitutions and a penchant for painstaking details.

By Richard Mowe FULL REVIEW

The New York Times

This stylistic restraint may help deflect accusations of exploitation (though the film's two pivotal sex scenes both feel uncomfortably extended, the initial crime lasting a squirm-inducing six minutes), but it also impedes our connection with the victims.

By Jeannette Catsoulis FULL REVIEW

Too bad the director blows it with a last act that tips the film's delicate balance over into lurid grotesquerie, even as his staging remains as consciously muted as ever.

Variety

The screenplay leaves it to the audience to map the psychological terrain, which will frustrate some but thrill others who prefer oblique storytelling.

By Leslie Felperin FULL REVIEW

Time Out

The film's horrifying experience looms over each well-constructed frame without anywhere to go.
