Reviews

Like its heroine, the film shocks by lunging back and forth between comedy and tragedy.

Tirdad Derakhshani, Philadelphia Inquirer

The most surprising film in Verhoeven's filmography, but it's also one of his absolute bests.

Brian Formo, Collider

Verhoeven is back thanks to the magnificent performance by Huppert. She deserves the Best Actress Academy Award for her fearless performance.
