(1 - 15) of 15 OFCS Rating: 20% Rotten Page   1   "'Deception' ends up as a splendid illustration of how acting skill can sometimes overcome a number of cinematic sins."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker D "Frankly there's nothing sadder in the world than to watch a sex-laden film unable to climax properly."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf "Detective Russo is bored with the story John tells her as soon as she hears it. And so, you feel instantly aligned with her, again, long steps ahead of all the shenanigans."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 2.5/4 "...an agreeable little thriller that benefits substantially from the uniformly stellar performances..."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair 1.5/4 "Can a movie title be so unthinkably bad that it single-handedly ruins the viewing experience? As it turns out, yes."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman 1/4 "Wolverines and Cougars aside, there are more than one strokes responsible for violating their own rules and putting a name on the film that is only an introduction to what's wrong with it."   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress D "As a thriller Deception isn't deceptive or thrilling enough; it's like a puzzle one can put together too easily and, when finished, doesn't reveal much of value."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 2/4 "Deception is star-filled and competently crafted, but so afraid of real sexuality that it instead offers us soft-lit perfume-ad images, and is erroneously convinced that moviegoers won't be able to spot lazy storytelling once their glasses are steamed up"   Cinematical   James Rocchi C- "If you want a film to have this many twists, don't name it Deception. That would be like naming Citizen Kane something like It's a Sled."   Film School Rejects   Kevin Carr 2.5/4 "It's a b-movie lark that aspires to something more and falls short, and the less you expect in the way of believability, the more enjoyable it is."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 1/4 "Trading in shabby trickery, Deception proves painfully incapable of building a better suspense-movie mousetrap."   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 2.5/5 "The lack of a proper title is only the first sign that it's barely half-baked."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline "To his credit, Langenegger keeps things relatively simple instead of resorting to lots of fast cutting and fancy camera angles. To his detriment, the picture he has made barely moves at all."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek 2/10 "So when does enigmatic become incoherent? In the hands of an inept, inxperienced director."   SSG Syndicate   Susan Granger "Click here to see review"   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf  (1 - 15) of 15 OFCS Rating: 20% Rotten Page   1
