Slate - David Edelstein
It has been sexed up, opened out, and finished off with a disappointing bang-bang climax, but it's still good fun.

Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman
I've seen far worse thrillers than A Perfect Murder, but the movie is ultimately more competent than pleasurable.
63
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - Liam Lacey
By the head-scratching dénouement, the "perfect" in the title seems particularly misplaced. How about Dial M for Muddle.
60
TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
If the roller-coaster plot twists lose you, there's always the satisfaction of Douglas's take on a script rife with amusing double entendres.
50
San Francisco Chronicle - Mick LaSalle
There's nothing about this thriller to prevent it from soon becoming enmeshed in the memory with others in which Michael Douglas wears a starched collar and grits his teeth.
