Taking a page from Hitchcock, "F/X" is a nicely knitted thriller, effective if conventional...

| Jan 3, 2018

As contrived and plot-hole ridden as it is, F/X still works quite effectively as a crowd-pleasing popcorn picture.

The action sequences are efficiently handled, but look elsewhere for psychological or emotional insight.

The film is as much a demonstration of various kinds of special effects as it is about them.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 20, 2003

The irony of F/X, which is a very good thriller indeed, is that it avoids the pitfall of so many thrillers; it doesn't degenerate into a mindless display of special effects.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000
