Critic Reviews

Sam Adams, Los Angeles Times
It's clear from Polanski's cramped frames that [director] Chapa knows as little about filmmaking as he does his subject.
Todd McCarthy, Variety
This Friday the 13th Los Angeles vanity release isn't even fun in a bad-movie way.
Peter Sobczynski, eFilmCritic.com
To describe the film as this generation's "Wired" hardly begins to scratch the surface. This is a movie so bad that the people who actually made "Wired" can actually look down upon it without coming across as hypocritical.
John P. McCarthy, Boxoffice Magazine
Ambitious in an obsessive, stalkerish sort of way, Damian Chapaâ(TM)s low-budget biopic of Roman Polanski is avowedly empathetic and thus not a complete hatchet job.
Brent Simon, Shared Darkness
A jumbled, whorish, opportunistic hot mess, multi-hyphenate Chapa's film is a fantastically terrible biopic, poorly told and riddled with repeated, confounding lapses in logic.
David Chute, L.A. Weekly
Though it's a near thing, the movie isn't quite bad enough to qualify as a classic tone-deaf vanity production.
