Don't Move Reviews
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 1, 2006
Don't Move is saved from outright awfulness by the performances of its two leads.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 5, 2005
You don't like Don't Move, you admire it for daring to be a bit more complex, for caring about characters who are hard to care about and for plowing forward through all manner of ugly business.
Full Review | Original Score: B | Jun 3, 2005
Though beautifully shot and acted, Don't Move still holds limited appeal.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 3, 2005
Romantic melodrama of the worst kind.

The performances are exquisite.
| Original Score: 3/4 | May 26, 2005
It has grand flourishes, bold strokes and a soundtrack that swells with emotional Italian and American rock, but it doesn't go over the edge of sentimentality. It's too hard-edged and its acting is too restrained and fine for that.

Erotic yet lyrical, graphic yet subtle, edgy yet uplifting, disturbing yet reassuring.
| Original Score: A- | May 19, 2005
Manipulative in the extreme.
| Original Score: 1/4 | May 13, 2005
This is a very watchable movie, but in the end it's like realizing you've spent a couple of hours in the company of an outwardly civilized jerk.

It's behind the camera where Castellitto does his best work. He immediately pulls you into the story and when it's over you don't want to move.
| Original Score: 4/4 | Apr 22, 2005
The character of Timoteo is so hypocritically conceived that it's hard to watch the movie to the end.

Castellitto must have been aiming for a story of redemption here. All he achieves is melodrama.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Apr 15, 2005
We just don't learn enough to compensate for feeling so little.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 15, 2005
Castellitto keeps cranking up the melodrama and l'amour fou, and after a while you realize he has no idea when to stop.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 15, 2005
A full-bodied, all-stops-out love story with a wrenching impact that makes most of today's screen romances seem undernourished by comparison.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 18, 2005
Now here's a daring version of l'amour fou.
| Original Score: A- | Mar 16, 2005
Thanks to [Cruz], Don't Move does move.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 13, 2005
The script is morose and unfocused -- not to mention hard to believe and insulting to women.
Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 11, 2005
What could have been a provocative psychological drama is instead a dishonestly romantic exploration of narcissism and exploitation.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 10, 2005
