Observer

Devoid of suspense and purpose, Spinning Man doesn't spin. It doesn't even move. Another case of the right actors in the wrong picture.

Rated: 2/4

Los Angeles Times

Of the many interchangeable, name-lead thrillers and action pictures concurrently premiering these days in theatres and on VOD, this one's definitely a cut above.

Can a movie devoid of thrills be called a thriller?

Birth.Movies.Death.

It moves along at a steady clip, and Brosnan, Pearce, and Driver are actively engaged with the heady approach to telling an otherwise recognizable murder mystery.

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Common Sense Media

This little thriller, part lurid potboiler and part philosophical quandary, plays like a sturdy "B" movie; it won't change the world, but it might keep late-night viewers from changing channels.

Rated: 3/5

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fraco, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, a história é fraca, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e mais relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Well acted and good production value. The story seemed to fray at the end though. It was as if the director didn't know which ending would surprise the audience so tried all of them. I also found the lighting choices a bit strange.

For some reason, while I was watching, I thought I had already seen this film once upon a time. I probably have and completely forgot it. Just being a suspect can ruin your life. I didn't think this was bad. I don't know if it was ever in theaters, but it seems better suited for the streaming age, anyhow.

A movie that is extremely nail bitting when a young girl goes missing and college professor with a nice family is the suspect in the disappearance...if you want to know if he did it, then so does the suspect himself......

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

I had a hard time understanding this entire movie, and God knows what happened at the end…who knows?

A film featuring someone who is so confused that even the movie itself is confused.
