Dreadful as their performances are, the actors are the victims.

Instead of being a merciless evisceration of the lifestyles of the rich, it's a little morality play in which Long transforms herself into a warm and useful person. Nobody within a mile of this project seems to have possessed an ounce of irony.

Initially tolerable but increasingly stupid.

The movie's unintentionally played like a comedy all the way.

I don't demand that all movies make sense. I sometimes enjoy movies that make no sense whatsoever, if that's their intention. But a thriller is supposed to hold together in some sort of logical way, isn't it?

Some individual sequences -- including a car chase early in the film - have the lunatic humor that might have made the rest of the film bearable, though probably nothing would justify the film's final blood bath.

It must be nerve-racking for the producers to offer a tale so lacking in standard melodramatic satisfactions. But the result is worth it, for this is the clearest film statement yet on how the nature of heroism has changed in this totalitarian century.

Without doubt one of the finest British films of the last 50 years.

I can't deny the incidental pleasures of watching these talented players giving it their all, even in such a misguided project.

It's worth two hours for those who appreciate this kind of workmanlike, low-risk drama.

This is tongue-in-cheek, fun thriller and a variation on a classic theme -- would you sell your soul to gain the whole world?

Regrettably, an overblown finale and redundant trick ending undercut the mild subversiveness of what's gone before.

Takes an unpopular group - upper management! - and humanises their involvement in screwing the world. Quite the achievement, really.

Unemployment is not a naturally cinematic thing. A far-too-neat conclusion notwithstanding, This is a decent exploration of the psychology of what happens when you loose your job.

The film delivers honest special-effects shocks without forfeiting its good nature.

At first this takes the form of your classic poltergeist activity (moved furniture, that kind of thing), but it becomes weirder.
