Played by Matthias Schoenaerts, Vincent is a tormented and inarticulate man, and the riveting center of Alice Winocour's sexy, relentless thriller Disorder. Read full review

The trick of Disorder is that it plays right to the audience’s suspicions and desires. Read full review

A notable, unusual existential thriller that is psychologically acute without the need for Oscar-clip self-pitying speeches, it’s also terrifically suspenseful with a provocative punchline. Read full review

Winocour has a talent that cannot be taught, she has a gift for filtering every development through at least one character — especially those moments that other movies would mulch into the stuff of raw spectacle. Read full review

In both the writing (in collaboration with Jean-Stéphane Bron) and directing, Alice Winocour is careful and clever in how she dispenses information. Read full review

Matthias Schoenaert’s muscular and brooding presence as an ex-soldierA slow building drama that turns into a riveting thriller due to the unconventional way that director Alice Winocour steers well clear of conventional ‘boo’ moments, but still obtains more than a few jumps anyway. Matthias Schoenaert’s muscular and brooding presence as an ex-soldier suffering post-traumatic stress syndrome is also a huge asset. He seems to fare a lot better in movies when speaking in his native tongue. The screenplay ekes out plenty of interesting detail in the unfolding of his relationship with Diane Kruger’s bored trophy wife, who he has been assigned to protect whilst her husband is away on shady business. The ending offers up a closing moment that for a second has you questioning what you are seeing. Special appreciation must be given to the music and sound design which play a big part in communicating Schoenaert’s medical condition.… Expand
