Reviews
|
Village Voice -
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.

|
Variety -
A flagrantly derivative but modestly diverting drama.
|
|
Entertainment Weekly -
The movie’s silly-arty aesthetic is regurgitated Polanski, and there’s a shameless script steal from "Presumed Innocent."
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
It's the sort of by-the-numbers, forgettable thriller, starring actors whose marquee days are behind them.
|
|
The A.V. Club -
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.
