	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Angie Errigo Empire	"Incredible performances from the cast, but Detachment is perhaps just too pretentiously depressing for its own good. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of five)"	NEU
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Kaye is an enormous talent. And 'Detachment' proves it, even with the overload of tricks that take us out of the story (...) Yet with Brody at the eye of the storm, 'Detachment' gets to you. It hits hard. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"Harrowing depiction of the American educational system features a superb performance by Adrien Brody"	POS
