In a #MeToo climate, it chooses to stand by its controversial story rather than play is safe. This is not a film that lazily says, "men bad/women good," which is easy to do in fiction. January 8, 2020 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review…

The movie is quite competent. I think the movie manages to set its speech, to develop it, and to leave us with the restlessness necessary to discuss this kind of problems. [Full Review in Spanish] October 1, 2019 | Full Review…

Reijn has made a movie that's very much about performance: as her characters maneuver around one another in a series of loaded conversations, the camera relishes Van Houten's every frown and Kenzari's every ambiguous smile. September 9, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Instinct is a serviceable entry on the actor's resume, but, as a credible psychodrama that pits a therapist against her imprisoned patient, it does a disservice to just about everyone else. September 6, 2019 | Full Review…
