"More twists than a barrel of pretzels"? Take that barrel and put it through the zigzag of a taffy-pulling machine and those results might be able to straighten out the labyrinth of circumstances in Tell No One.

Blending the hard-boiled and the innocent with a sly dexterity, this is a riveting piece of filmmaking that never relies on the obvious or the cliché

I haven’t enjoyed so much pleasurably intrigue-laden suspense in ages, and it is charismatically acted, too.

A gripping thriller, this deserves to cross over from the subtitled bracket into mainstream cinema.

Tell No One retains all the slick dynamism and tension of a classic Hollywood thriller without ever seeming anything but French.

[An] engaging, well-acted French thriller based on a novel by American writer Harlan Coben.

The French thriller Tell No One shows Hollywood how to make a knotty mystery that's both logical and deeply satisfying.

Tell No One has shades of Hitchcock's Vertigo -- and not to its detriment. [An] extremely gripping and fascinating suspense film.

We know the material is artificially -- even deviously -- constructed, and we enjoy being manipulated by people who know what they’re doing. But it’s Cluzet’s intense performance that makes this genre piece a heart-wrenching experience.

Feels like an episode of The Fugitive turned more darkly into The Big Sleep.

This is London

A delicious outpouring of upper-crust malevolence, hovering cynicism and ever-deepening ambivalence that zigzags dizzyingly among its many characters, locations and plot turns.

This Hollywood-level suspense thriller never goes where you expect it to go, but often gets bogged down in over-exposition as the plot thickens... and thicken... and thickens...

Among the movie’s many delights are the fluctuating rhythms of its pacing, an atmospheric volatility that sets off the doctor’s blooming paranoia against his sunlit, leafy surroundings, and a terrific cast.

It's a potboiler -- not groundbreaking or brilliant, but solidly entertaining.
