June 15, 2009Why is it some scripts result in predictable, cheesy, made-for-tv hokum. Whilst something like Perfect Stranger, manages to attract big name stars to take down aboard it's sinking ship? Probably completed before Berry or Willis' cheques were even cashed, this rushed paint-by-numb... ...( read more )

March 11, 2009Sometimes a movie tries so hard to twist and turn that it comes out straight as an arrow. Convoluted, overwrought with contrived moments of tension, this movie fell flat.
I adore Giovanni Ribisi and his performance was superb. Bruce Willis is also a favorite and he played his ... ...( read more ) -
January 20, 2009Perfect Stranger is the story of journalist Rowena Price. When she finds out that a childhood friend has been murdered, she goes undercover to try to figure the story out.
The morale of this tale, is that everyone we know has secrets to hide. Even if you think your secret is saf... ...( read more ) -

October 27, 2008Boring, with an arbitrary and utterly ridiculous twist thrown in at the end. Still, i don't regret seeing it. It's always worthwhile to see Halle Berry poured into a tight dress :-)

June 28, 2009Je savais que les critiques étaient mauvaises, mais je voulais le regarder parce qu'y'avait Bruce Willis...
Je pensais à avoir un film de suspense, thriller ou action, mais pas grand chose se passe là -dedans... Et bon, la fin est quelque chose...

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
For those who are interested in Berry as both an actress and screen presence, this is one of the most satisfying films she has ever made. It capitalizes on her strengths and she owns the picture, from... full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
That's right, it's a techno thriller that treats the already clichéd topic of Web abuse with an idiotic sense of discovery. full review

Pete Hammond, Maxim
A not-so-perfect 'sexual thriller' that is short on thrills and any semblance of logic. full review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
Perfect Stranger isn't great art by any stretch, or even art by any stretch, but it is perfectly functional low-to-middlebrow entertainment -- a B movie at ease inside its own gaudy skin. full review

Ty Burr, Boston Globe
A laughably overheated thriller from the once promising James Foley. full review
April 12, 2007
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
There's a vast, possibly bottomless pit reserved for thrillers that are neither good nor bad enough to be truly entertaining, and James Foley's Perfect Stranger tumbles right into it. full review

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
Life is full of choices, and Halle Berry has made another bad one with Perfect Stranger, a perfectly off-putting thriller. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
While the story becomes dauntingly complex as it goes, the finale resolves its multiple mysteries seamlessly. Perfect Stranger is the kind of polished diversion that the big studios should deliver twi... full review
