Feb 10, 2019 This is a thriller?!!? The slowest, strangest movie I have seen in a while. It is too bad because it is a great cast. Do not waste your time!! See more

Kylo S Dec 26, 2018 One impression is that Kaijser, relying on Harrar's book, chose Pearce as the protagonist to refer to the problematic memory-truth relationship of "Memento " (2000), and a further impression is that he lost himself on the street. (Mauro Lanari) See more

Kylo P Nov 29, 2018 The slowest, most pointless thriller I've seen in ten years. Guy Pierce's character is so badly written, it left me speechless. He's being accused of killing a teenage girl and he acts as it's an inconvenience. Absolutely trite. Brosnan is excellent, Minnie Driver is (as always) first class and it's a polished, well-made film. But the story is hopelessly bad. May whoever wrote it never write again! See more

Nov 28, 2018 Fergus Stapleton. Did he do it or not? Collage professor with a shady past comes under suspicion when a high school student goes missing. The other big question here is how much does the ending affect the overall quality of a film. I thought it was very good. Pearce is superb and impossible to read as the professor. Brosan excellent as the persistent Columbo like cop investigating and Driver very good as the suspicious wife. Good direction, script, build up keeps you guessing and though the ending is divisive it really makes you think back over what you've just watched. See more

Han S Oct 29, 2018 Too slow and lacks suspense for a murder mystery. The plot was confusing jumping between two realities and the ending does little to clear it up. If it weren't for Guy Pierce, Spinning Man would be impossible to watch to the end. See more

Hagrid M Oct 12, 2018 Unfortunately this isn't about a rotating superhero but is instead a mystery thriller about the disappearance of a college student and the man who may or may not be responsible for her disappearance. The man in question is played by a smug looking Guy Pearce whose character happens to be a language expert, therefore forever manipulating what the truth might or might not be. He does this to such an extent that even he eventually questions his own truth and whether his mind has lost the actual truth. The mystery is maintained throughout which was good and the play back and forth between Guy Pearce and Pierce Brosnan's cop was enjoyable but overall it was disappointing and that is down to the very anti-climatic ending which left me wondering what the point of the whole thing was.
