While stylistic and nicely shot, it's nothing more than an average, dismissible thriller.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Dec 7, 2020

The movie evinces greater formal values than conceptual ones, and it thus feels somewhat disjointed. [Full Review in Spanish]

Much of its failure to convince emotionally as well as intellectually must be laid at the door of its director, Ridley Scott, who seems far happier making super-high-tech thrillers like Alien and Blade Runner.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 5, 2019

Bracco is able to perfectly blend a genuine toughness and strength with all the expected attributes of the idealized Hollywood homemaker.

The movie can only fully work if all sides of the love triangle are equally strong.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 21, 2019

Where Someone to Watch Over Me falters is, oddly enough, in the central relationship.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 11, 2019

...an aggressively pointless and utterly forgettable misfire from filmmaker Scott.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 11, 2012

Even though the movie doesn't leave much of a residue, it looks terrific while you're watching it: Manhattan has seldom appeared as glitzy or as glamorous.

Illogical, flawed or forced thrillers are all too common. Ones that knock your eyes out are rare.

| Jun 3, 2012

A stylish and romantic police thriller which manages, through the sleek direction of Ridley Scott and persuasive ensemble performances, to triumph over several hard-to-swallow plot developments.

A guilty pleasure: Ridley Scott's fourth film is a minor work, a semi-effective combo of cop thriller and erotic noir melodrama, but it has nice visual style and the perfromances by Tom Berenger, Mimi Rogers and especially Lorraine Barcco are likable.

Most of New York, indoors and out, looks about as good as the Chrysler Building in Scott's gleaming fusion of eternal triangle and killer-on-the-loose.

A riveting piece of cinema....Berenger at his dependable best

Scott's visual prowess overwhelms a paper-thin premise.
