Reviews for Tell No One
Tell No One maintains a rewarding balance of genuine emotion and high-tension entertainment. See it and tell everyone.
07/18/08
Tell No One darts its way past all the improbabilities and clichés that weigh down most mysteries, shooting toward a conclusion that's both endearingly old-fashioned and satisfying.
07/18/08
A story of upended love with a mystery that exerts its power till the very end.
07/18/08
Canny, refreshingly emotional and intuitive thriller.
07/18/08
The story becomes so convoluted and contrived (pursued by police, Alex just happens to run into a patient's father, who owes the doctor a big favor) that much of the tension dissipates.
07/16/08
"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.
07/14/08
Tell No One is an intricate puzzle for a summer evening; a thriller with a rare touch of bittersweet romance.
07/11/08
For all of its insanity of supposition, familial discord and the often-explored theme of the corrupt nature of the rich, Tell No One is something rare and original.
07/11/08
It attempts no improvements on the basic suspense formula. It just does everything really well: perfect pacing, lovely camera work, spot-on acting and an ingenious plot.
07/11/08
Now that I have let it settle in my head for a few days, I have come to sort of embrace it after all, not despite the lunacy of its plot but because of it.
07/11/08
The sometimes confused story %u2013 with so many players, a who's who checklist is needed to keep things clear %u2013 is aided with the oft-thrilling chases that punctuate the film.
07/11/08
There will be times you think it's too perplexing, when you're sure you're witnessing loose ends. It has been devised that way, and the director knows what he's doing. Even when it's baffling, it's never boring.
07/11/08
Top CriticA terrific mystery, equal parts haunting love story and nimble thriller.
07/11/08
Under the direction of Guillaume Canet, who adapted Harlan Coben's English-language best seller with Philippe Lefebvre, this is a splendid ensemble doing its level best to keep the audience guessing all the way through an increasingly knotty narrative.
07/10/08
Top CriticI haven’t enjoyed so much pleasurably intrigue-laden suspense in ages, and it is charismatically acted, too.
07/10/08
Top CriticThriller, love story, whodunit; an unwieldy trio made whole by an up-and-coming mastermind.
07/08/08
An over-plotted, 2 hour crime caper offering those blessed with patience a denouement well worth the wait.
07/06/08
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
07/04/08
A crackerjack thriller. A stylish and riveting nail-biter that holds us in its spell from start to finish.
