Apr 23, 2009
Um thriller bem realizado que abusa do talento da dupla principal para tentar se diferenciar de tantos outros exemplares do gênero. E quase consegue.
Apr 15, 2009
Fracture is an entertaining movie that should be better than it is.
Feb 2, 2009
You come away feeling as if you have been watching a battle between two second-tier opponents.

While you might feel conflicted between whether you're seeing Hannibal Lecter all over again or you're in awe because it's hauntingly brilliant, Anthony Hopkins and the film's makers molded pieces of the previous character into a uniquely tailored altered
Sep 21, 2007
A light psychological thriller that works better on a technical level than a thematic or character-centric one.
Sep 20, 2007
At no moment does this stop feeling like an especially glossy and especially joyless episode of Law and Order.
Sep 20, 2007
It's straightforward and nongimmicky (you don't have to wonder whodunit because we're told in the first few minutes), involves a minimum of blood and gore, and holds our interest nicely.
Sep 1, 2007
It's occasionally quite witty, it's able to tell us a great deal about its characters and their back stories in an economic fashion and its plot swings are surprising and compelling.
Aug 11, 2007
Even if you don't leave the movie entirely satisfied, you won't have had a bad time, either.
Aug 9, 2007
It's so well written and well acted you hope Fracture holds up all the way, but problems develop.
Aug 4, 2007
Ethics, morals and the will to win are the core issues of Fracture, a gripping puzzle of a thriller that plays out as a mind game between two men

Not since Lecter has a role been this well suited to Hopkins, whose intelligence and pristine formality as an actor often make him seem alien.
Jun 30, 2007
A strong cast and smart-talking characters help elevate this into very watchable territory, with just enough suspense and style to win through.

The real pleasure in Fracture is watching Hopkins and Gosling, the elder statesman and brash young firebrand of the current cinema’s greatest actors, go at it.
Jun 30, 2007
A smart and snappy thriller that makes light work of its ethical dilemmas, Fracture is a little too neat and tidy to stick in the mind for long, but the Hopkins-Gosling pairing is choice, and neither comes up short.
