Reviews
"This is a wonderfully provocative film with complex characters and breathless twists and turns. The performances are terrific." -- CNNhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/Movies/01/06/review.match/index.html"A sort of romance noir -- spruced up in pressed white linens -- this British-made film is elegant, uncompromising and oh-so-veddy nasty. Its characters march to the drumbeat of Greek tragedy, film noir and opera, and you can almost hear the murderous musings of Dostoevsky's Raskolnikov, who puts himself beyond morality and the law." -- Washington Posthttp://www.washingtonpost.com/gog/movies/match-point,1106308.html
