The New York Times - Dana Stevens
A disjointed, sometimes fascinating mélange of moods, associations and effects.

The Hollywood Reporter - Michael Rechtshaffen
Emerges as a frustrating cop-out.

ReelViews - James Berardinelli
If your reason for seeing In the Cut is to watch America's sweetheart stripped bare, you'll get what you're looking for. On the other hand, if you're looking for a good movie, this one will disappoint.

Variety - Todd McCarthy
Beautifully crafted and highlighted by an arresting change-of-pace perf by Meg Ryan as an English teacher erotically awakened by a homicide detective. But the story's unpalatable narrative holes and dramatic missteps will hold sway over the pic's better qualities.

The A.V. Club - Noel Murray
Though the oppressive artiness makes the early scenes fairly ridiculous, the director's odd methods add rare tension to the climax, as it becomes evident that the finale won't be so predictable in Campion's hands.
