Simon Killer (2011)

Critic Reviews

Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com
A brilliantly orchestrated work of cinema in a grimy, 1970s vein.
Todd McCarthy, Hollywood Reporter
An unpalatable Franco-American entrée one would like to send back to wherever it came from.
Ray Greene, Boxoffice Magazine
Any American distributor who bothers with this one would be well advised to book it into bondage clubs, where at least half the audience is likely to enjoy pointless, masochistic experiences.
Jeremy Kay, Guardian [UK]
Simon Killer is a difficult, dark ride.
Kimberly Gadette, Doddle
Due to the overdone visual trickery from writer/director Antonio Campos, the movie ends up killing itself. And might as well be retitled Simon Suicide.
Noel Murray, AV Club
It takes the all-too-common feelings of loneliness and disorientation and shows in disturbing detail how that can shade into madness.
Anthony Kaufman, Screen International
A disturbing, complicated portrait of a young sociopath lost in Paris.
