Critic Reviews

Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Uncertain as to whether it's a horror story, a cautionary tale or simply another absurdist look at life and love in the big city, A Problem With Fear gets its own case of the cold sweats.
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
A Problem With Fear is aggressively busy, jumping between sterile office buildings, airless shopping malls and hurtling subways, cut with television and computer game images. None of it though, amounts to much beyond a sense of visual irritation.
Jon Popick, Planet Sick-Boy
Stinks up the joint.
David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
The whole film has an air of smugness about it, as if Burns has created this 92-minute joke which either you get or you don't.
