Realistic eroticism aside, there are plenty of other things to recommend here.
10/31/03
Jane Campion creates a movie that has dread prowling around every corner -- and the symbolism pours off the screen.
10/21/03
I found the movie reasonably absorbing from moment to moment.
11/06/03
Top CriticStylish, clever, and full of insight into the darker side of both male and female sexuality...
11/01/03
The stars are excellent, and their offbeat relationship is satisfying, even if the whodunit is not.
10/31/03
Fans of Moore’s book will be pleased with the job Campion has done with bringing it to the screen.
10/28/03
beautiful, magnificently performed and appreciably in your face..Ultimately, this is a risk that was well worth taking for Ryan. She’s a knockout
10/22/03
It's an art movie for the masses.
10/23/03
An honest look at sexuality as perceived by women.
11/01/03
Life'll kill ya, lamented the late Warren Zevon. Love'll kill ya, amends Campion in a film which shows that what long has been good for the goose can cut both ways.
10/30/03
A major cinematic achievement--simultaneously heartbreaking, frightening, unpredictable, sexy, grim, provocative and eerily plausible.
10/31/03
In a sense, it's a Rorschach test of what it's like to be single, 40ish, female and living alone in New York City.
10/30/03
Top CriticDespite its weaknesses, this is an entrancing movie.
10/31/03
Top CriticMeg Ryan habitually misplaces her clothes, Mark Ruffalo may or may not be playing a serial killer and there's a scene where a man cuts a woman's leg into sections with ice skates. I dare you to be bored.
10/21/03
My advice is to ignore the plot holes and zero in on Campion's meticulous, non-judgmental direction and Ryan's searing performance.
10/30/03
Top CriticA work impressively realized, and all involved deserve acclaim.
10/29/03
for all its flaws, there's something about this jittery thriller that's likely to get under your skin...
10/31/03
Campion hits the same thematic ground with the same passionate release as she did in The Piano (1993) and the underrated Holy Smoke (1999).
