Reviews for Tell No One
Tell No One is a thoroughly absorbing whodunit with more twists and switchbacks than the Le Mans racecourse.
A well-paced journey through knotty conspiracies and ever-shifting alliances, executed with great style and grace.
A whodunit so nicely crafted that you're tempted to forgive the Byzantine plot -- hell, you're even tempted to pretend you actually understand its twisting obscurities.
The French thriller Tell No One shows Hollywood how to make a knotty mystery that's both logical and deeply satisfying.
Canet stages some breakneck chases, particularly one where Alex crosses a busy freeway, and corrals an array of fascinating characters to populate this twisty but entirely logical plot.
It's a potboiler -- not groundbreaking or brilliant, but solidly entertaining.
Tell No One is a French action thriller and murder mystery that doesn't cheat.
Constructed like a calling card for Hollywood employment, as when a montage of funeral and wedding memories is underscored with 'Lilac Wine' by Jeff Buckley.
Sews us tightly into a story that not only challenges the brain but engages the heart.
It has a terrific setup that keeps us interested (it's based on a well-regarded novel by Harlan Coben), and there's at least one really great, thrilling action scene that makes the whole thing watchable.
[An] engaging, well-acted French thriller based on a novel by American writer Harlan Coben.
A wonderfully entertaining, occasionally very funny, always involving thriller that never insults your intelligence.
Feels like an episode of The Fugitive turned more darkly into The Big Sleep.
Tell No One is good enough to warrant not only a long run in art houses, but considerable attention for a director who dared to tweak a hugely popular novel and made it work.
Tell No One, French director Canet's excellent adaptation of Harlan Coben's bestselling novel, has everything a great personal-paranoia/persecution movie needs.
These classy people are put to the trashiest ends, and, for the most part, it's a pleasure to see them rooting around in the garbage.
A French thriller that teases the intellect, shocks the senses and is sometimes simply too suspenseful for comfort.
Tell No One feels like a novel, rich with character and incident, unafraid to demand attention from its audience while unspooling a twisting, suspenseful story.
