(1 - 50) of 53 OFCS Rating: 80% Fresh Page   12   > Next "Sin una historia tremendamente cautivante, pero con un gran manejo de cámara y unos visuales que siempre se disfrutan, la cinta bien vale el pago del boleto."   Cinenganos   Alex Ramirez "Gets better after Foster leaves that little room."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker B+ "a thriller stripped down to its bare essence"   AboutFilm.com   Carlo Cavagna 4/5 "The best new film of the year!"   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null B+ "Apart from one plot twist too many, "Panic Room" is a seamless suspense-thriller with a top-notch cast."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey "As beautiful and well used as all this space is, midway through the film, it starts to feel less foreboding than vacant, an occasion for Great Visuals, rather than a location where characters live and where anything might happen."   Nitrate Online   Cynthia Fuchs D- "Jodie Foster locks herself into a room for nearly an entire film… unfortunately, she probably should have done that prior to principal photography."   EDGE Boston   David Foucher 3.5/4 "'Panic Room' is taut, convincing, stylish and edgy cinema."   Cinemaphile.org   David Keyes 4/4 "...one of the most taut and exciting thrillers to emerge out of Hollywood in a good long while."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair C- "A "Home Alone" film that is staged like "Rosemary's Baby," but is not as well-conceived as either of those films."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 3/4 "A superb exercise in eliciting suspense out of simple, progressively sticky situations."   DustinPutman.com   Dustin Putman 2.5/4 "Panic Room may lack depth but it's great eye-candy nonetheless."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez A "It's unlikely we'll see a better thriller this year."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 3.5/4 "David Fincher’s Panic Room is the closest we’ve come to a film worthy of the banner “a female Die Hard.”"   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress A "Redefines "edge of your seat.""   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov C "Viewers willing to settle for a refried thriller might be mildly intrigued...but anyone who's seen its superior models can't help but be disappointed."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 3.5/4 "The suspense in Panic Room never ebbs, and that makes for a thoroughly entertaining -- if somewhat exhausting -- 108 minutes."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 3.5/4 "a first-rate nail biter, a taut, claustrophobic thriller that is part modern Hitchcock and part Peckinpah with a gender twist"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 4/5 "David Fincher's directorial skill makes a tense tale snap with smart terror."   Netflix   James Rocchi 8/10 "During the thrilling moments every ounce of suspense earned the right to be there."   Window to the Movies   Jeffrey Chen 3.5/4 "Panic Room is a state of the art example of solid Hollywood filmmaking."   MovieMartyr.com   Jeremy Heilman 7/10 "A generally taut and effective little thriller."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 8/10 "This film had me crunching down on my fingernails and enjoying every tension-filled minute."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo '2' "The panic room itself is a provocative concept and it says something about modern society, but I'm not sure if it deserved its own movie. "   Bangitout.com   Jordan Hiller 3.5/4 "Fincher comprueba que el cine de escapismo y entretenimiento puede hacerse de forma inteligente y sin ofender al espectador menospreciando su capacidad mental."   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 5/5 "Enjoyable, but not enough to make me panic."   3BlackChicks Review   Kamal 'The Diva' Larsuel "A delicious feast of filmmaking."   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery 2/4 "The 'fretful room' is a better description of this light thriller that unfolds like "Die Hard within a Budget.""   MovieCrypt.com   Kevin A. Ranson 2.5/4 "For an average filmmaker, this might be a nice addition to a résumé but for Fincher, this is a disappointment."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest B "The camera glides between floorboards, through stair railings and keyholes, and even performs a loop-de-loop descending a staircase"   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 3/5 "A well-crafted exercise in urban paranoia that's so controlled it never achieves the reckless, visceral immediacy its subject matter demands."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 3.5/4 "Placing it in the wide perspective of many other thrillers, it most definitely stands out in the crowd."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik 3/4 "David Fincher hasn't made a bad movie yet"   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes "[Foster and Fincher are] locked in a box... and it's a box that's unopenable except by cheating."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 3/4 "Style definitely wins over substance, and it's difficult to imagine the film being as enjoyable an entertainment if that were not the case."   TheMovieReport.com   Michael Dequina 4/5 "Everything is perfectly planned and laid out."   Goatdog's Movies   Michael W. Phillips, Jr. 3.5/4 "Panic Room is like the Energizer bunny of suspense; it just keeps going and going and going."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan 4/5 "Mais um momento inspirado de David Fincher."   Cinema em Cena   Pablo Villaca 3/4 "'Panic Room" is a conventional, but well-crafted thriller which benefits from very talented actors."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B "...a routine, by-the-numbers suspense thriller that succeeds in rising above the writing and provides palpable tension from start to finish."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 87/100 "If the plot seems a bit on the skinny side, that’s because Panic Room is interested in nothing more than sucking you in…and making you sweat."   Apollo Guide   Scott Weinberg B "Offers a tight plot audiences can digest with a mild suspension of disbelief."   Eclipse Magazine   Sean O'Connell 3/4 "Solid"   sbs.is   Stefan Birgir Stefansson 2.5/4 "Not even the expansion of Psycho's peephole into a bank of video monitors can convince of Panic Room's purported heritage."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw 9/10 Read review   Modamag.com   Brian Orndorf 3/4 Read review   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito 6/10 Read review   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R.
