Lou Lumenick
Williams triumphs by exceeding both in sheer actor's craft - and the depths he plumbs in his character's tortured soul.

Lisa Schwarzbaum
In One Hour Photo, Williams is a snapshot of human complexity worth framing.

Variety
Todd McCarthy
This immaculately made first feature from noted musicvid and commercials director Mark Romanek provides Robin Williams with one of his creepiest, atypical roles, and the comic star responds with an unusually restrained performance that is, in the end, quite moving.

Claudia Puig
It is a rare performance when one of the world's most recognizable stars can disappear completely into a character on the screen.

Michael Wilmington
One Hour Photo is a piece of often masterly image-making, a half-brilliant film with a revelatory lead performance by Williams. But it's also a thriller that gets trapped in surfaces: shiny, exciting, full of dread but often only tricks of the camera.
