Naim's direction is as pedestrian as his screenplay, and his inexperience at working with actors surfaces in the one-note performances.

It’s nice to see Mira Sorvino who has sort of wobbled about since winning the Oscar about ten years ago she is very good in this film.

Top CriticAn original idea but too dark--not the story, but the set.
10/17/04
Williams has extraordinary success in channeling this other person. How strange that the same actor can play some of the most uninhibited of all characters, and some of the most morose.
10/15/04
Top CriticNaim has created a low-key mood piece that should have been more cutting.
10/15/04
Writer/director Omar Naim succumbs to most of the pitfalls of mediocre science fiction, inventing a 'dehumanizing' technology that's patently preposterous and then prodding us into getting all flustered about it.
10/15/04
This debut from writer-director Omar Naim is cut-and-dried sci-fi thriller business.
10/15/04
Top CriticThe lack of imagination, given the initial premise, is astounding.
10/15/04
Final Cut offers up some interesting ideas, and it would have been nice to see these ideas deepened.
10/15/04
This first feature from writer-director Omar Naim is unusually accomplished.
10/15/04
Top CriticThis premise sounds like the sort of a screwy, non-idea that a young film student might dream up while editing a documentary. And according to the press notes, that's just what happened.
10/15/04
For all its brain teasing, Final Cut is more a philosophical rumination than an engaging drama.
10/15/04
Maybe it's the small budget, but Cut scores points for making the future look pleasingly like next week and touching on topics of memory and personal responsibility.
10/15/04
It's all modestly clever but decidedly under-baked.
10/15/04
Top CriticWhat is it with Robin Williams playing creepy roles? How did the one-time funniest guy on earth turn into Mr. Spooky? Come back, Mork, your work here was not done.
10/15/04
Another dud of a movie that springs from an intriguing premise.
