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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

Una de esas película que sin el cast que tiene pasaría sin pena ni gloria al olvido.

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!'.

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

A horrible waste of talent, time and money and has the potential to be one of the worst films 2004 has to offer.

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.
