Critic Reviews
-
Jeff Strickler, Minneapolis Star Tribune
...a fast-paced thriller that probably will leave Alfred Hitchcock aficionados mourning its shallowness -- but not until after they've enjoyed an adrenaline rush.
-
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
None of the amusement gained in watching the performances, unfortunately, amounts to much, as the script, in a desperate attempt to lend action interest to the original, static, puzzle plot, compounds surprise turn after surprise turn.
-
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
What the film lacks is suspense, surprise (the new ending is a dud) and passion.
-
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
A Perfect Murder begins better than it ends, and the pleasures it offers turn out to be more of a transitory nature.
-
David Denby, New York Magazine
His [Davis] direction is swift and very effective, and the movie, shot in shades of ebony (the color of black marble), looks exceptionally handsome.
