The Unknown Girl isn't quite up to the standards of the Dardenne brothers' best work, but remains a well-acted effort that pays poignant -- albeit limited -- dividends.

The Unknown Girl sporadically threatens to burst into life and become riveting, though it seems content to chug along as a classy and mildly diverting mystery. April 3, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's a very good film, but it is challenging, with a slant toward pessimism that may make it a bit harder to warm up to than The Kid With a Bike or Two Days, One Night. February 15, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

If this is a "minor" Dardennes film, which was the critical reception coming from Cannes in 2016, it is nonetheless a masterful piece of art. If only all filmmakers could produce "minor" works like this one. November 24, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Shot in bleached-out blues and greys in an overcast, sombre landscape that never seems to lighten, the tone is melancholy, low key yet also as suspenseful and compelling as a whodunnit. November 19, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

I'm sure there's a Christian allegory that I'm missing here, but a blandly sturdy, stutter-stop drama is a blandly sturdy, stutter-stop drama in any denomination. October 29, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
