Reviews for Anna M.
1 - 13 (sorted by date; Australian critics are listed first)
Isabelle Carré is superb as Anna, but the problem is the tone. Caught between psychological study and thriller, it aims for both - but achieves neither.
11/16/07
Isabelle Carré brings a raw emotion to this French language film that elevates it from a so-so psychological drama to something deeply chilling.
11/16/07
None too persuasive.
11/16/07
The sheer ferocity of the central performance in this French psychological drama from writer-director Michel Spinosa is what saves it from being slightly one-dimensional.
11/16/07
Top CriticSpinosa's film is stylish and careful not to over-dramatise.
11/15/07
Think Fatal Attraction gone French and gone wrong.
11/15/07
With a strong performance from Isabelle Carré, Anna M. is an entertaining film, but it is also confused and slight, and like its anti-heroine, is in need of a firmer grip on reality.
11/15/07
Writer-director Michel Spinosa, harnessing a powerhouse central performance from Carré, has managed to hit the ground between giddy Hollywood thriller and brooding arthouse character piece.
11/15/07
Top CriticFor a film that presents itself as a case-study, Anna M has no trouble in chucking plausibility out of the window - would she really get a job as a nanny with that loony smile and no references? - and suffers from a mystifying and unsatisfactory ending.
11/15/07
Dodgy chapter titles and a ridiculous ending only confirm the impression that you're watching the art project of a second-year psychology student.
11/14/07
Top CriticUnfortunately, as director Michel Spinosa has discovered, making a Fatal Attraction-esque thriller that’s also a serious study of mental illness is a lot harder than it sounds.
11/14/07
A decent Parisian thriller that rides on the tails of a calling-card turn from Isabelle Carré as a lovelorn stalker-cum-social-menace who falls in love with her doctor.
