“IT'S ON MY SHORT LIST OF THE MOST ENJOYABLE MOVIES IN RECENT MEMORY. Smart, funny, scary and surprising – A ONE-OF-A-KIND THRILLER.” – Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

“DELECTABLE. A Hitchcockian kind of thriller that gives you the time and space to laugh with perverse delight at your own helplessness. Director Tyldum is marvelously in tune with his material.” – David Edelstein, New York
