Once Side Effects gets into its crime story, medication is swept aside by movie nonsense. The storyline goes into tangles that have to be dealt with very rapidly if the audience is not to start laughing.May 10, 2016
The script by Scott Z. Burns is deliciously sinuous.February 08, 2013
Steven Soderbergh is one of our best and most versatile directors.March 05, 2013
As a thriller in the Hitchcock mould, 'Side Effects' is great fun: its characters are well acted without being entirely likeable, which makes their jeopardy all the more enjoyable while putting us at a clinical remove.January 03, 2014
It's difficult to escape the impression that the movie is impressed only with its cleverness.March 01, 2013
Soderbergh is less interested in making statements than he is in skillfully fulfilling genre expectations.
