Reviews


88
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
A breathtaking exercise in the macabre, a gruesome thriller with quirky cops and a killer of Lecterian complexity, and even when the movie is perfect nonsense, it's so voluptuous that you're grateful to be watching it anyway.
75
Boston Globe - Jay Carr
The Crimson Rivers could teach many an American thriller a thing or two about sophisticated creepiness.
63
New York Daily News - Jack Mathews
More amiably mindless summer distraction than just about anything Hollywood has to offer this season.
60
TV Guide Magazine - Maitland McDonagh
For most of its running time, this lunatic euro-thriller is creepy, stylish and occasionally suspenseful.
60
Village Voice - Jessica Winter
Never lacks for energy, and the director and his stars stride with focused confidence through the hooey.
