Reviews

Village Voice - Chuck Wilson
The new thriller Misconduct is getting kicked to the curb by its distributor, which is too bad, because director Shintaro Shimosawa's debut feature boasts an elegant visual style and a mystery plot with so many absurd twists that the film becomes enjoyable high melodrama.
50
Variety - Joe Leydon
A flagrantly derivative but modestly diverting drama.
50
Entertainment Weekly - Joe McGovern
The movie’s silly-arty aesthetic is regurgitated Polanski, and there’s a shameless script steal from "Presumed Innocent."
40
The Hollywood Reporter - Frank Scheck
It's the sort of by-the-numbers, forgettable thriller, starring actors whose marquee days are behind them.

The A.V. Club - Noel Murray
If Misconduct were more lurid — or more shamelessly idiotic — it might at least be a guilty pleasure. But instead it’s slow-paced, and the filmmakers’ idea of cheap thrills is to make Emily a masochist, who gets turned on by being spanked and slapped around.
