2/4
"Nicolas Winding Refn evokes grief as a Lynchian put-on."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

4/10
"Frustratingly opaque by design, Fear X offers viewers insufficient fear and excessive "X.""  All Movie Guide  Josh Ralske

"Imagine an hour of birds flying backwards and rooms with red curtains, and there’s the rest of your movie."  FilmStew.com  Larry Carroll

2/5
"Turturro's clammy, lumpen Cain is a profoundly disagreeable guide down the rabbit hole of hallucinatory paranoia."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

"[A] thoroughly riveting slow-burn of a psychological thriller..."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

3/5
"Refn seems overly pleased with his own cleverness, laying on the hypnotic austerity a bit thickly."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

B
"It's a fundamentally Scandinavian movie, a hyperintense meditation on death and destiny set amid a bleak wintry landscape and played out by the emotionally devastated."  Flipside Movie Emporium  Rob Vaux
