	Author	Review
United States	Kristen Yoonsoo Kim The New York Times	"With only a few fleeting moments of nail-biting thrills, “Every Breath You Take” remains mostly tepid and frustrating."	NEU
United Kingdom	Fionnuala Halligan Screendaily	"Indebted to every domestic invasion film since Fatal Attraction, it’s hard to shake off the sense that you’ve lived through this before"	NEG
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"For a thriller that's overly designed and under-scripted, it's got the twists and good actors to carry you along."	NEU
United States	Glenn Kenny rogerebert.com	"What’s worse is that the film initially pretends to have some sensitivity about mental illness, but blatantly trivializes it (...) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Chuck Bowen Slant	"Sam Claflin is best in show, but his performance is undercut by the film’s inability to escalate or explore the ramifications of its premise (...) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	John Serba Decider	"The first act is a heavy-handed, but relatively realistic portrait of grief, and by the third act, it’s a senselessly bazonkers suspense-thriller"	NEG
United States	Katie Walsh Chicago Tribune	"One has to wonder what every actor, including Monaghan, is doing in this flimsily written psychological thriller, but perhaps, that question isn’t even worth the speculation."	NEG
United Kingdom	Cath Clarke The Guardian	"Casey Affleck fires blanks in trashy psychodrama (...) Shallow psychological thriller (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
