Jeannette Catsoulis of the New York Times wrote, “With his ice-creamy dialogue” and “an incredibly glossy title” the film is “a slow, brutal skipper with roots in a real-world scam. ”
Associated Press’ Jake Coyle wrote, “II aa Lot has no way of solving the most deceptive plot. But he’s strong, gripping, invisible, and Pike pulls off something he couldn’t do much else as a main character. ”
Defendant Peter Bradshaw said in his review. “Rosamund Pike is fantastic, giving us our scariest Hitchcock-blonde version of Gone Girl. ”
Leah Greenblatt of Entertainment Weekly said, “Pike, who has taken the lead in high-profile biopics such as Radioactive last year and A Private War 2018, feels dismissed by the wickedness of the role, which generously sinking those white white teeth into her favorite villainy from Gone Girl. ”
