Critic Reviews of "Revanche"
Globe and MailJanuary 22, 2010A surprisingly unruffled tale of love, thievery, murder and revenge.
Toronto StarJanuary 22, 2010The plot might have yielded a generic erotic thriller if Revanche were made by rougher hands. Instead it becomes something more sophisticated thanks to the efforts of writer-director Götz Spielmann and a superb cast.
Philadelphia InquirerNovember 05, 2009There's real biblical tragedy, and redemption, in Spielmann's fine, sad, suspenseful film.
Chicago TribuneAugust 14, 2009A film of carefully strained pulp and rigorously controlled intrigue, the Austrian revenge drama Revanche, which is really about the dividing line between vengeance and forgiveness, belongs to a neo-noir universe where all the classical genre laws apply.
Chicago ReaderAugust 07, 2009Writer-director Gotz Spielmann (Antares) avoids the clutter and manipulation of most thrillers, escalating tension almost solely through the characters' turbulent emotions.
Chicago Sun-TimesAugust 06, 2009Revanche involves a rare coming together of a male's criminal nature and a female's deep needs, entwined with a first-rate thriller.
Film Comment MagazineJuly 01, 2013"It works because Spielmann has established that we're not watching belabored dramatic trajectories collide, but an encounter between two people in miles-away mindsets."
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsJune 18, 2012Impressive noir film that befits Greek tragedy as it travels deep into sublime territory.
EmanuelLevy.ComJune 15, 2011Austria's nominee for the Best Foreign Language Oscar is a precise and effective psychological thriler
Eye for FilmJuly 13, 2010Here justice moves slowly, and in mysterious ways - and Spielmann's final reckoning of accounts, though unexpected, is subtly satisfying.
London Evening StandardMay 06, 2010Gotz Speilmann's film is well-made, aptly characterised and seems frighteningly true to life.
Shadows on the WallMay 06, 2010More character study than thriller (the title means "revenge"), this slow-burning Austrian film effectively holds our interest with its unpredictable plot, even though it's not easy to care where it's going.
