It's a thriller void of thrills, wasting the time of the cast and the audience.

| Original Score: F | Jan 18, 2019

A Perfect Guy plays it all too straight and to the point of insipid functionality.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 22, 2018

All of the structural, if superficial aspects of the story are in place, but the film fails to dig deeper, giving talented veteran actors very little to work with.

| Apr 12, 2017

The Perfect Guy - a poor cross between Basic Instinct and Fatal Attraction - is the latest obsessive-relationship thriller that promises an exciting ride, but just doesn't have the tools to deliver the goods.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 5, 2016

Glossy but blandly directed stalker thriller The Perfect Guy fails to do anything interesting with its stock set-up and there's no erotic frisson between the characters. Sadly, a misted shower door is as steamy as things get here.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 27, 2016

So very earnest in its incompetence that it's kind of sweet.

| Jan 2, 2016

A paint-by-numbers stalker thriller a tad too predictable for this critic's taste.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Dec 24, 2015

The Perfect Guy might be high melodrama . . . yet despite its faults, it dresses nicely, wears good cologne, and has excellent table manners.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 3, 2015

The B-movie riffs are efficiently executed, but the biggest mystery is why this supporting feature should be troubling our cinema screens when its target audience is firmly nestled on the sofa.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 22, 2015

Lathan, Ealy and Chestnut do their best with the poorly-written script but even their experienced acting chops fail to save the copycat thriller.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 20, 2015

A superficial, yet effective time-killer.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 20, 2015

Little more than an NRA promotional video targeted at African-Americans.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 19, 2015

The Perfect Guy is a lazy retread from the Fatal Attraction department of stalker movies.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 19, 2015

A checklist of 90s thriller cliches (so tired you can almost see the cast yawning) get trotted out with a multitude of gloss yet zero creativity, in this disappointingly strait-laced Fatal Attraction knockoff.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 19, 2015

The beats of the character are as follows: lovely, lovely, lovely, satanic, satanic, satanic.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 19, 2015

The Perfect Guy manages to deliver a handful of tawdry thrills and remains solidly watchable thanks to its classy cast, but it lacks the ambition to rise above generic thriller box-ticking.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 18, 2015

An enragingly stupid and obvious 'thriller' jammed with dull genre clichés, wild hypocrisy, and just a hint of victim blaming.

| Nov 18, 2015

Only Lathan's earnestness holds the film together -- she's so good while being given so little to work with, it's a crime that she isn't headlining better films than this one.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 24, 2015

The unsure tone screams that this is a director embarrassed by the film he's making.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 23, 2015

Derivatively written, [and] has a laughable villain, but its success still needs to be celebrated.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Sep 18, 2015
