Reviews:
” Despite the fact that most of the movie takes place indoors, we never get the sense of visual limitations because Ken Adam's set designs give us such an incredible multitude of things to look at (and through) in the mansion.” By Roger Ebert
” None of the innocence of the original survive this dark and nasty remake. Harold Pinter's world overtakes Anthony Shaffer's and destroys it. The result is an entertaining, short, showcase for two actors from different generations. Michael Caine who's old enough to have been in the original and Jude Law who's young enough not have seen it.” By Alain Benoix
” Kenneth Brannagh's theatrical touch works beautifully here and the two actors are worth the price of admission and more.” By M. J Arocena
