Murder by Numbers Reviews

Murder By Numberrs never aspires to be anything more than than a big-budget episode of a police procedural, making for a sporadically interesting, but often dull film.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Nov 20, 2023

Average thriller that achieves its aim of moving star Sandra Bullock a few houses away from her trademark girl-next-door persona.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 20, 2020

This is a film about obsession - obsession with getting away with murder - obsession with solving a murder - obsession with showing how to elude capture in a murder. Sadly, the audience won't be obsessed with watching it.

The climax is the biggest letdown...

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 3, 2019

Predictable thriller is definitely not for kids.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 26, 2010

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 6, 2005

The problem is that there's no real mystery to this mystery.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 25, 2004

... It leaves you feeling that it could have been so much more.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 7, 2004

...compelling subject matter that’s employed to watchable yet entirely forgettable effect by Schroeder...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 1, 2003

| Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 5, 2003

The literal cliffhanger ending is far too overblown to be convincing, but most of what comes before it deserves praise.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 8, 2003

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 8, 2002

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 30, 2002

Director Barbet Schroeder, whose Barfly (1987) remains one of the most memorable in my mental filmbank, shoots this script with the kind of concentrated power that turns every scene into the most effective tool emotionally as well as expositionally.

Bullock's complete lack of focus and ability quickly derails the film

| Sep 26, 2002

Despite the presence of Ms. Bullock, Murder By Numbers doesn't add up to very much, and like those old paint-by-numbers kits, the movie can easily be set aside and forgotten.

There are times when the movie plays like a version of Alfred Hitchcock's Rope if the Jimmy Stewart role were replaced with the team from 온라인카지노추천's C.S.I.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 22, 2002

An interesting idea turned into a movie about too many things. Maybe complexity in today?s dumbed down cinema is good; but complexity is not the same as "too much."

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 1, 2002

The outline of Murder by Numbers may be familiar, but the filmmakers and Bullock do an expert job of filling in the colors.
