Consensus: This taut and snappy French prison break thriller may be suspiciously implausible, but is held together by two fine central performances.

This French thriller hurtles along with hardly a pause.

Top CriticA taut, sexy, French thriller as long as you¹re happy to accept the ludicrous premise.
06/05/09
An efficient, highly polished potboiler that rattles along without permitting the viewer any time to ponder the implausible plot.
06/05/09
There’s nothing exceptional about any of this but it is well made, decently acted (Kruger is clearly a star in the making) and rachets up the tension with some skill.
06/05/09
Engaging in places and interesting in its influences.
06/05/09
Top CriticCavayé’s film may not be the cleverest or most credible but it packs an effective punch.

Top CriticThere's much to enjoy in this admittedly generic thriller - a snappy set-up, strong central performance and a story which escalates from cosy domesticity to bullet-riddled mayhem.
06/05/09
Top CriticHeavy-handed teases do very little for the overcooked melodrama.
06/05/09
Top CriticThe fundamental silliness and improbability of everything is an insuperable problem.
06/05/09
Top CriticAnything For Her proves a competent candyfloss film, but with a suspicious aftertaste of Brussels sprout.
06/05/09
A striking thriller with a strong central performance from Gallic Robert Powell-alike Lindon.
06/05/09
Methodically detailing every stage of his daring plan, director Fred Cavayé serves up a taut tale that tantalisingly leaves the question of his incarcerated heroine’s innocence dangling.
06/05/09
Prepare to gnaw you knuckles to the bone with this nerve-shredding French thriller that poses the question: How far would you go for a loved one?
06/05/09
It proves to be a heady mix of romance and action ... something for both him and her.
06/05/09
French thriller Anything for Her has a livelier way with predictability.
06/05/09
The last half-hour is fraught with near-unbearable tension, as the writer-director Fred Cavaye runs the escape plot alongside the concerted efforts of les flics to foil it.
06/05/09
Anything For Her is a superbly directed, thoroughly gripping suspense thriller that packs a powerful emotional punch.
06/05/09
A brilliant French thriller that doesn't need to be changed in any way.
06/05/09
It never succeeds in suspending our disbelief long enough to buy into its preposterous premise.
