Sums up everything that's wrong with American remakes of foreign films: it's dumbed down so far, it's just plain dumb. Full Review |

2.5/5 |
A slick movie with a nice-looking cast and a script that strips away everything that made the original so elusive and involving. Full Review |

2.5/5 |
High style masks rather than updates what's essentially conventional in the material, and the plot unfolds on a seeming need-to-know basis. It's aggravating. Full Review |

Something, Je ne sais quoi, was lost in translation when the French thriller L’Appartement was remade into this obtuse romantic mystery. Full Review |
