88The film's look is impressive; it's the most successful rotoscoping effort to date (far surpassing Richard Linklater's duo of "Waking Life" and "A Scanner Darkly"), and causes every frame to drip atmosphere.
-
80One of the year’s more luscious releases, offering not just the sleekest car chase but the most romantic of rainstorms.

60Volckman and Miance are undoubtedly superb draftsmen; what they need is a writer of comparable skill.
-
60A visually wondrous experience in high-contrast black and white, bogged down by a slow, underwrought story and uninvolving characters. It would be easy to dismiss it as another great-looking film with little else to offer, but that wouldn't be entirely true.
