June 15, 2009Why is it some scripts result in predictable, cheesy, made-for-tv hokum. Whilst something like Perfect Stranger, manages to attract big name stars to take down aboard it's sinking ship? Probably completed before Berry or Willis' cheques were even cashed, this rushed paint-by-numb... read more

March 11, 2009Sometimes a movie tries so hard to twist and turn that it comes out straight as an arrow. Convoluted, overwrought with contrived moments of tension, this movie fell flat.
I adore Giovanni Ribisi and his performance was superb. Bruce Willis is also a favorite and he played his ... read more -

October 27, 2008Boring, with an arbitrary and utterly ridiculous twist thrown in at the end. Still, i don't regret seeing it. It's always worthwhile to see Halle Berry poured into a tight dress :-)

October 6, 2008It's mildly entertaining when Bruce Willis is on screen, but otherwise it just doesn't cut it. The ending is one of the worst I have ever seen in my life. I can't believe how stupid it was. It's not like the movie was good before the ending, but it was bareable. After the ending,... read more

Carla Meyer, Dallas Morning News
A rarely suspenseful thriller with a twist ending of the worst kind: It takes too much explanation. Full Review

Richard Schickel, TIME Magazine
The movie would perhaps like to say something serious about the ease with which modern communications allows us to be multiple personalities, but that effort is lost in ineptitude. Full Review

Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
Its shiny plastic glamour serves to endorse the very phoniness it ought to be warning us about. Full Review

People with access to vital information just show up when the movie needs them, then vanish again. Full Review

For those who are interested in Berry as both an actress and screen presence, this is one of the most satisfying films she has ever made. It capitalizes on her strengths and she owns the picture, from... Full Review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
That's right, it's a techno thriller that treats the already clichéd topic of Web abuse with an idiotic sense of discovery.

Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger
Layered with improbable plot twists and hypocritical commentary, the movie is lurid and outdated when it wants to be hip and provocative. Full Review

Lou Lumenick, New York Post
Nothing can quite top the climax, which arbitrarily assigns a culprit in a way that makes you question almost every single thing that's transpired up to that point. And no, that's not a good thing in ... Full Review

People peek through windows, hack into computers and sneak into apartments without the slightest hesitation. We're guilty of voyeurism, too, since the primary pleasure to be found is in seeing three c... Full Review
