Critic Reviews

  • Manohla Dargis, Los Angeles Times

    A movie that looks like a muddy second-generation Xerox and contains all the emotional and intellectual appeal of cold tea and soggy toast.

  • Andrew Sarris, New York Observer

    The fragmented storytelling is, well, vintage Pinter, but Ms. Dench and Mr. Irons remain mesmerizing after all this time.

  • A.O. Scott, New York Times

    The story is a muted melodrama made strange and haunting by the manner of its telling.

  • Megan Turner, New York Post

    An atmospheric and subtly engrossing relationship saga.

  • Jessica Winter, Village Voice

    Imogen and Otto's happenstance affair holds little intrigue or surprise.
