Critic Reviews

Owen Gleiberman

Tell No One's plot thickens in about five ways at once, but they're all connected. The issue of how is a riddle that does more than tease --gives you an itch you won't want to stop scratching. Read full review

Joe Morgenstern

Thrillers aren't always so thrilling, but Tell No One is -- and absorbing, sometimes perplexing and often stirring as well. Read full review

David Denby

It’s Cluzet’s intense performance that makes this genre piece a heart-wrenching experience. Read full review

Marc Mohan

In the fine tradition of well-made thrillers, it's enough that it all feels solid at the moment, and the final revelations are unexpected and seemingly inevitable. Read full review

Ann Hornaday

A crafty, swift, subtly stylish thriller. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

Canet and Lefevre pruned subplots and fixed the novel's ending -- it's now merely preposterous rather than patently absurd – but it's the cast that makes the genre clichés feel vivid and even fresh. Read full review

Wesley Morris

Once the final character has put the last puzzle piece in place, courtesy of an epic explanation, a kind of relief sets in: Someone just needed to spell it all out. It does not entirely help. Read full review

A very well-crafted film that slowly unfolds the complex situation behind the central premise. I loved the soundtrack. It is also very French, so keep that in mind for cultural differences.
