At least the performances are solid.

Reviews for Twisted
Judd, Samuel L. Jackson, Andy Garcia and David Strathairn all are wasted.
08/07/08
This thriller seems most interested in lingering over battered and bloodied male faces.
01/05/07
Top CriticOvercooked dialogue, some wildly implausible story devices, and a dearth of remotely likable characters, and Twisted is a crime story that just doesn't pay.
11/02/06
Twisted is so bad I'm embarrassed to have seen it and therefore am a bit ashamed to write even an unkind review.
07/02/06
Sarah Thorpe’s screenplay is a compendium of by-the-book clichés; Kaufman’s direction leaves the material stranded in a limbo between po-faced and trashy; Judd’s approximation of drunkenness is worrying to behold.
02/09/06
Top CriticJust like nearly all of Judd's past entries in the genre, this film isn't great, it's just average.
06/26/05
The plot turns are increasingly preposterous, as are the metaphors.
11/19/04
Judd, Jackson and Garcia's work is pedestrian at best. But they did accept this script.
10/14/04
I didn’t go to sleep and only looked at my watch a couple of times, so I guess it wasn’t terrible.

Remember kids, alcohol is bad, mmm-kay?
07/10/04
The movie may dole out a few guilty pleasures, but you won’t believe a word of it.
07/09/04
Una de esas película que sin el cast que tiene pasaría sin pena ni gloria al olvido.
06/15/04
Sou contra a pena de morte, mas teria o maior prazer em ajudar a prender a protagonista deste filme na cadeira elétrica e dar o comando 'Roll on two!'.

Top CriticTwisted dies at almost the very moment it begins.
04/24/04
It is sad to see an actress as talented as Ashley Judd repeatedly appearing in these women-in-distress movies.
03/27/04
"Twisted" is a train wreck, with Ashley Judd stuck in the caboose.
03/25/04
A horrible waste of talent, time and money and has the potential to be one of the worst films 2004 has to offer.
03/24/04
You've seen better mysteries on Murder She Wrote, you'll hear better dialogue in an Ed Wood flick, and you'll experience better sex scenes on a hot day at your local zoo.
