Mary Reilly Reviews
This isn't dumb, but it plays out as academically as it sounds, without a shred of true terror and with only the most muted sexual charge. Solemn, portentous and curiously dull, there is simply no chemical charge between Roberts and Malkovich.

Certainly Julia Roberts' strangest role, and she does an OK job.

[Roberts's] acting is of the Melrose Place/Andrew Shue variety, her eyes blank and mouth often agape (not unlike the photo of her used in the print ads).

If nothing else, proves that when you take Julia's lipstick away, much of her appeal goes, too.

I have nightmares about being forced to sit through 'Mary Reilly' one more time.

Psychological thriller that nibbles at the edges of the theme of sexual repression and its perils.

Julia Roberts' performance was justly mocked, but the remainder of the film may be the most faithful version of Jekyll and Hyde ever made.
