50	TV Guide There's nothing hugely original going on here, but as twisty-turny crime thrillers go, this one is perfectly entertaining.
50	Chicago Tribune When the final twist has been turned and the last corpse has hit the ground, it is a film that could have been twice as good if it had been half as complicated.
50	The New York Times If an Olympic competition for overplotted movie is ever held, Circus seems a likely contender for the gold.
