The Bridesmaid Ratings & Reviews
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
A prickly, twisted, mean-spirited, borderline crazy and highly seductive picture.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
This 2004 French feature seems concerned not so much with the psychopathology of everyday life as with psychopaths who lurk behind the everyday.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Chabrol's film stands as a reminder of the madness that lurks in plain sight.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Chabrol arranges his story with a subtle, almost clinical accumulation. And it takes close attention to the movie's seemingly innocuous details to understand his deeper purposes.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Stamets
Entering his sixth decade, Chabrol remains a master inspector of the criminal heart of the French bourgeoisie.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
A superbly unsettling crime drama about a seemingly ordinary family, ravaged by passions that descend on them like a plague.
Seattle Times
Ted Fry
At age 76 with 54 films to his credit, Chabrol can do little wrong and pretty much whatever he likes.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The film reveals its secrets slowly, and Chabrol tightens the screws not according to the rules of Hollywood suspense but with a cool, level gaze.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
A merrily macabre things-we-do- for-love yarn.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
It uses the extraordinary craft Chabrol has acquired over the decades to insinuate itself inside our psyches in unexpected and potent ways.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Claude Chabrol has a wonderful way of making audiences nervous.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
If The Bridesmaid is middle-drawer Chabrol, it's almost worth going to just to watch Laura Smet, a vamp of not-so-basic instinct.
Observer
Andrew Sarris
Certainly, The Bridesmaid is the most compelling film I have seen this year since Jean-Pierre Melville's Army of Shadows.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
In The Bridesmaid, the latest of his works to be released in the United States, Mr. Chabrol again takes up a sharp instrument and directs it at one of his favorite targets, the family.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Now well into his 70s, Claude Chabrol -- the French Hitchcock -- continues to turn out enjoyable thrillers about skeletons in bourgeois closets.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
Smet, the 22-year-old daughter of Nathalie Baye and French musician Johnny Hallyday, has a hauntingly beautiful face and carries Senta's enigmatic nature well.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
Like Hitchcock or Clouzot, Chabrol excels at building a sense of dread.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
... a psychodrama of typically brisk efficiency and relaxed gallows humor.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Chabrol's scrutiny of human behavior is remarkable for its laidback intensity and absence of finger-wagging.
Variety
Deborah Young
When the master of French thrillers Claude Chabrol meets the mistress of English suspense fiction Ruth Rendell, the result is a potent if very classic blend.
