Original Sin Ratings & Reviews
Observer
Rex Reed
High on lust and low on logic, the preposterous Original Sin is an erotic thriller that evokes more laughs than sweat.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
The movie is all posture, clich, and editing-room Spackle.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
If you can swallow some of the more overripe dialogue ... it's not nearly as mediocre a two hours as the trailers would have you think.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
A textbook case of a movie that would have been better had it been worse.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Suggests unintentional self-parody from the get-go.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
Aficionados of movies in the so-bad-they're-good category might just revel in this overheated costume melodrama.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Original Sin is really about murky storytelling, bad dialogue and arty close-ups of Jolie's formidable lips.
San Francisco Chronicle
Wesley Morris
Neither epochal nor epic in its ludicrousness. It's just run-of-the-mill trash.
New York Post
Jonathan Foreman
The kind of movie that keeps you on your toes waiting for the next deadly serious absurdity.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Cristofer's approach is relentlessly serious and dead-on, devoid of humor, wit or personality.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
It is never moving or shocking. It needs to be both.
Detroit News
Tom Long
It's your basic, steamy black widow tale with one of the most implausible set-ups in memory.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
A plateful of steamed corn.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
Original Sin, despite the heavy-handedness, isn't awful enough to be a hilarious howler. But neither is it good enough to become the tropical noir it could have been.
The Hollywood Reporter
Judith Prescott
The combination of a smoldering Banderas and a simmering Jolie generates as much heat as a 40-watt bulb.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It's an exuberant example of what it is -- a bodice-ripping murder 'meller' -- and at that it gets a passing grade.
New York Times
Elvis Mitchell
It's hard to keep a straight face just thinking of Mr. Banderas and Ms. Jolie in the same shot, but Original Sin will bore the giggles right out of you.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
We haven't had this much tawdry fun since Pia Zadora and Bo Derek's heydays.
Citysearch
Bilge Ebiri
What starts off as a sleazy melodrama with intriguing co-star chemistry quickly gets bogged down in piled-up plot twists.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
The film aspires to Hitchcock ... but it comes off like one of those soft-core Red Shoe Diaries flicks you see on cable TV.
