Premiere
Olivier Assayas latest effort could be mistaken for a hipper-than-thou thriller. But it isn’t--it’s in fact a difficult, challenging, and troubling art film. [October 2003, p. 19]
90
It's an exasperating, irresistible, must-see mess of a movie about life in the modern world and so very good that even when its story finally crashes and burns the filmmaking remains unscathed.
80
The entrancing visual imagery goes a long way toward filling in the screenplay's gaps in logic.
80
Disturbing, darkly beautiful.

Chicago Tribune
Unlike almost every other sexy modern thriller (especially most recent studio blockbusters), this one gives you a lot to think about.
