Critic Reviews
-
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
A glibly entertaining corporate thriller.
-
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
You know in advance what the politics will be: strong women in positions of power are just fine as long as they aren't sexually dominant and obey middle-class rules of propriety.
-
Todd McCarthy, Variety
Levinson and Attanasio don't ignore the basics of the tale, but don't indulge them either, subjectively approaching Tom's character to maximize dramatic involvement and treating the most explosive aspects of the story more rationally than emotionally.
-
Janet Maslin, New York Times
This time, it's the author who's the dinosaur.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
It is an exercise in pure cynicism, with little respect for its subject -- or for its thriller plot, which I defy anyone to explain.
