At least the performances are solid. Full Review |

Judd, Samuel L. Jackson, Andy Garcia and David Strathairn all are wasted. Full Review |

This thriller seems most interested in lingering over battered and bloodied male faces. Full Review |

1.5/4 |
Overcooked dialogue, some wildly implausible story devices, and a dearth of remotely likable characters, and Twisted is a crime story that just doesn't pay. Full Review |

Twisted is so bad I'm embarrassed to have seen it and therefore am a bit ashamed to write even an unkind review. Full Review |

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. Full Review |

Just like nearly all of Judd's past entries in the genre, this film isn't great, it's just average. Full Review |

The plot turns are increasingly preposterous, as are the metaphors. Full Review |

Judd, Jackson and Garcia's work is pedestrian at best. But they did accept this script. Full Review |

I didn’t go to sleep and only looked at my watch a couple of times, so I guess it wasn’t terrible. Full Review |

The movie may dole out a few guilty pleasures, but you won’t believe a word of it. Full Review |

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!'. Full Review |

Twisted dies at almost the very moment it begins. Full Review |

It is sad to see an actress as talented as Ashley Judd repeatedly appearing in these women-in-distress movies. Full Review |

"Twisted" is a train wreck, with Ashley Judd stuck in the caboose. Full Review |

|
1/5 |
A horrible waste of talent, time and money and has the potential to be one of the worst films 2004 has to offer. Full Review |

1/5 |
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. Full Review |
