What the
Alex IHEMar 5, 2013For me, the most terrifying scene in Don't Look Now is a testament to Nicolas Roeg's direction, Scott and Bryant's script, and Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie's skill as actors as the scene itself is nowhere near traditionally frightening, and out of context seems…

"If the world is round, why is a frozen lake flat?" I can't get a grip on why this has never worked for me. Perhaps its phantasmagoria is too grounded, too rooted in a very pragmatic British skepticism. Even given all the curlicue editing and repeated motifs, I don't…
matt lynchJul 2, 2022This is the only movie I’m sure I’ll be putting on my Sight and Sound all time ballot, and knowing this has prompted me to re-examine my criteria (and maybe rewatch Don’t Look Now, not that I ever need an excuse). I can’t say that Don’t Look Now is the best film I’ve…
Adam NaymanAug 19, 2014Don't you love it when a film completely brings its respective story into full focus? Don't Look Now, for much of its run-time, was meandering and boring at points. I found it hard to stay invested into the story, but there was always a new development to make sure I didn't…

I don’t care what the average rating is this was boring
James New likedDon't Look NowLives up to the hype as one of the best horror films ever made. Easily top 5 cold opens of all time, and what a brutal ending. Donald Sutherland (RIP) brilliant as ever with a story that takes its time but pays off very satisfyingly
Jacob Hall dislikedDon't Look NowThe ending would've been fine if the movie was actually interesting throughout, but it wasn't. Adding random suspense sound effects over scenes of people walking around buildings aimlessly doesn't make it any more suspenseful
- Steve Hallett is "meh" onDon't Look Now
Not a Horror Movie! A tragic Loss in England! A serial Killer on the loose in Venice! A couple struggling with Grief! This film hasn’t aged very well! Audio and video feel a bit artsy! Not for me 5/10.
CvptvinHowdy dislikedDon't Look NowI was hoping the ending was going to pay off, but unfortunately, I wasn't satisfied. It's a decent film, but too slow and boring.
Jacky Shemmy dislikedDon't Look Nowjust was confused the whole time and although there was cool collections I felt it moved slow and i didn’t really get the ending
- Joey dislikedDon't Look Now
It's a firm drama and not at all horror. Not a good drama either.
Nathan Kleinow dislikedDon't Look Nowbad
Gena Steen is "meh" onDon't Look Nowthe last ten minutes really helped tie it all together but i don’t feel like it was worth sitting through, it should’ve been like an hour at most. i think it’s interesting that he analyses his gift warnings and visions for the opposite and that this wasn’t a ghost story after all

One of the creepiest horror films ever. [24 July 2009, p.2]
Bill Goodykoontz
Arizona Republic
The movie is set in a gloriously creepy and crumbling Venice. It's the off-season, and every deserted canal and alleyway reeks of bad vibes. Roeg plays masterfully with this menacing atmosphere, jangling the nerves with quick cuts and quixotic possibilities. [16 Oct 1998, p.72]

New York Daily News
More a triumph of tone and texture than of storytelling....But what makes Don't Look Now one of the creepiest movies of all time is the artful way director Roeg leads us around blind corners and down dark alleys (both literally and figuratively), straddling the line between reality and mysticism. [4 May 2001, p.4]
