Compliance Reviews
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Compliance is one of the toughest sits of the movie year 2012. But it's an uncompromising and, in its way, honorable drama built upon a prank call that goes on and on, getting worse and worse for the people on the other end of the line.
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
The point of Compliance, which caused walkouts and shouting matches when it premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, is how we are programmed to do things that go against our natural instincts as long as we believe we have the law on our side.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
A disturbing, fact-based look at the ways in which people can be bullied into bowing to the demands of authority figures.

Cary Darling
There's the adage that life is nasty, brutish and short. It's even worse when you're half-naked and locked in a supply room with your boss.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
This is one insistent film, more evocative of human behavior than movies that take fewer risks ever could be.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
Zobel, a second-time feature filmmaker, has put together a skillful, sympathetic but unsparing re-enactment of a small-scale atrocity, and his cast plays it out with natural, understated performances.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Compliance is a difficult film to watch -- walkouts have been reported at more than one screening -- but it's also a calculating and intimate deconstruction of the greater social ills that our fast-food nation faces as a whole.

Sara Michelle Fetters
It took me places I did not want to go, got me in a mindset so infuriating I was angry at myself for thinking the thoughts I was.
Village Voice
Steve Erickson
Compliance's underlying humanism and political conscience lift it beyond being a macho endurance test.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Like a John Hughes movie hijacked by Roman Polanski, this troubling indie effort lays bare the sadomasochism of the American workplace.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Tirdad Derakhshani
A harrowing, gut-wrenching fable about power and authority that shows that even the most well-adjusted, ordinary person could be tempted to degrade and dehumanize their neighbor.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jim Brunzell III
Zobel's masterful direction and screenplay heighten the distress of authority figures possessing unseen persuasion over naive employees, exposing a disturbing and haunting look at what some workers are willing to do in order to follow orders.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This is a well-made film, with plausible performances by all the leads, especially Ann Dowd. We feel we know people like this.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Fails its first test, which is that the audience believe every word of it.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
One watches in horrified fascination, and a greater horror comes when one realizes that, placed in the same kind of situation, one might react in the same way.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Too condescending to be trusted, too manipulative to be believed, too turgid to be enjoyed, too shameless to be endured and, before and after everything else, too inept to make its misanthropic case.
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
That the thriller is based on real incidents only magnifies its effect.
San Francisco Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
We feel like gutless witnesses to a crime.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
We think we're more world-wise than these people and that this could never happen and then Zobel brilliantly forces us to come to terms with those judgments.
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
There is a level of stupidity displayed by the people in this movie that beggars belief. Their behavior is to stupidity as the Death Star is to a doughnut.
