Reviews for Antibodies
1 - 19 (sorted by date; Australian critics are listed first)
a sophisticatedly modern noir thriller that sorts the sheep from the lambs.
06/13/07
Com vastas referências a Se7en, O Silêncio dos Inocentes e O Homem de Palha, é um filme cujas excelentes fotografia e montagem constroem uma eficaz atmosfera de tensão. Ainda assim, torna-se previsível em seu terceiro ato.

Antibodies brings together a philosophically minded serial killer, a devoutly religious cop and a cynical filmmaker clearly itching to go Hollywood.
02/16/07
Top CriticA German thriller that isn't shy about ripping off The Silence of the Lambs.
02/16/07
As an exercise in watching a bad guy burrow too deeply into a good guy's head, Antibodies proves more gross than psychologically unsettling.
02/16/07
The film's pace is brisk enough to maintain our full attention. Antibodies is not so much an art house movie as a well-made, commercial thriller that happens to be in German.
02/15/07
Top CriticInstead of reinventing the procedural mechanics of the serial-killer drama, filmmaker Christian Alvert adds to its current state of retardation with desperate atmospherics and a cheap disquisition on sex and religion.
02/15/07
Alvart adorns everything in portentous biblical trappings but is more interested in sleek visuals and rug-pulling gimmicks than his protagonist's (histrionically handled) moral conflict.
02/15/07
Antibodies is fairly riveting, thanks to Alvart’s command of craft and tone. He’s a director to watch.
02/15/07
A tangible sense of evil lingers over this German serial killer shocker, but the introduction of religious symbolism tips the action into self-conscious melodrama.
12/30/06
Top CriticLike Hannibal Lecter with dentures, Antibodies lacks bite but still disturbs.
11/21/06
It's a frightening, cleverly scripted picture that has much sport with the supposed contrast between the fresh innocence of countryside and the inherent corruption of the city.
11/18/06
Steeped in religion yet shot through with moral ambiguity, this disturbing psychological thriller breathes new life into the moribund serial killer movie.
11/16/06
It’s a consistently tense ride.
12/06/05
Not content with a straight psychological police procedural, Alvart mixes in distracting -- and unconvincing --Biblical symbolism in a curious bid for weightiness.
11/21/05
Top CriticAlvart does put the viewer through a gripping experience with a final twist few will see coming.
11/11/05
Antibodies is refreshing in that it admits that everyone -- from apple-cheeked youths to ruthless killers -- is on a sliding scale of good-to-evil.
