2/5
Farmiga stands out in an otherwise rote and thrill-neutral tale of a psychic gumshoe. Go to Full Review

2/4
It's as messy as a teen's bedroom and packed with all manner of distracting clutter that needlessly burdens a plot. Go to Full Review
Ella Taylor Variety Jun 5, 2014
If only the movie didn't insist on constantly telling us what it has quite clearly shown. Go to Full Review

B-
When it should blow our minds, Anna sinks back into the conventional, suggesting that either somebody involved high up the power ladder lost [their] nerve, or else the creative team had a lot of good notions but not the big one to tie the rest together. Go to Full Review

Instead of a silly throw-away schlocker, Anna turns out to be a modestly entertaining slice of B-movie entertainment. Go to Full Review

There is nothing particularly fresh about "Anna," from its script to its direction to its cast. Go to Full Review

Draco R Nov 15, 2018 Anna, seems too boring to watch, and ruins it's hopes at making a slight impression with audiences.
Feb 26, 2018 While this movie had a lot of potential through its well set up series of manipulations, the dialogue and plot devices have a quality of brute force that is unnessecary. The acting is good for our two leads, but the problems around the ham-fisted execution of what could have been a good plot detract from what this movie could have been. Despite this, I would still recommend if you are interested in a plot with genuine twists and turns that keep you guessing through a good portion of the movie. See more
Leia W Feb 3, 2018 A bit predictable, but pleasant enough to watch and doesn't overstay its welcome. Feels more like a miniseries episode than a standalone thriller. I appreciate that Anna remains sympathetic throughout the movie, which keeps it from veering into "Gone Girl"-style schlock. See more
Sep 3, 2017 The acting constantly reminded me of computer game voice-overs. It's a good, no, "great" film if you like spotting clichés. Trying to think of something good to say about this film, but I think this turd has already been polished (rolled in glitter, what have you) to get it to its current state. See more
Ron R Jan 3, 2017 While happy to see Mark Strong lead a film I was sorry that this convoluted mess was what he was offered. There's an amusing kitten video floating around somewhere to better spend your time. See more
