| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 10, 2003

| Original Score: 67/100 | Jan 16, 2003

It becomes a quite interesting tale of co-dependency, and the illusions of control people can construct in their lives.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 8, 2002

A tough thriller to find enjoyable or completely satisfying no matter how well crafted the story is by writer-director Jon Reiss ...

| Original Score: C+ | Oct 15, 2002

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 15, 2002

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 27, 2002

Jon Reiss's script has trouble finding its footing, and the plot progresses in awkward jerks.

| Jan 1, 2000

One of those potentially interesting movies that takes its sweet time getting to the point -- by which time many audience members will likely have bailed out or dozed off.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

A weakly performed rehash of master-slave role-reversal tales like The Servant.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Shot in a house in an 18-day shoot, it still backs the wallop of a movie with much bigger stars and budget.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 1, 2000

Unlike its Hollywood kin ... this scene from the class gurgle has the courage of its convictions -- which are misanthropic enough to make Neil LaBute wince.

| Jan 1, 2000

Paul Hipp ... garners no sympathy from the viewer as he allows, without reason, everyone to walk over his emotions and needs.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Jan 1, 2000

The execution of [Reiss's] nightmare ultimately moves too slowly to make this late-blooming freak-out worth waiting for.

| Jan 1, 2000

It's a bitter pill to swallow, featuring a quartet of unsympathetic characters and an unrelenting air of misanthropy.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 1, 2000

Illogical, unentertaining, and downright unappetizing, this is a miserable attempt at black comedy that succeeds in neither making us hate, love, nor even feel sorry for its mischief makers.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Jan 1, 2000

The characters are so dislikable that not much seems to be at stake.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 1, 2000

Taking a branch off the (early) Neil LaBute tree of filmmaking, Jon Reis has planted a fashionably disturbing offshoot, fertilized with heavy doses of "Rod-Serlingesque" irony

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000

The story is so oddly executed that it frequently seems weird for weirdness' sake.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Jan 1, 2000
