The Ferpect Crime Ratings & Reviews
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
An outrageous comedy of errors set at a Madrid department store.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
A worthwhile and fairly amusing effort.
eFilmCritic.com
Eric D. Snider
A well%u2013oiled machine of wit, sex and violence, as darkly funny as the Coen Bros. (almost) and as visually interesting as Tarantino (almost).
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
An astute satire on the boundlessness of unchecked sexual fetishism and power.
Arizona Republic
Richard Nilsen
It plays like one of those minor European oddball comedies of the 1970s ... neither realistic nor particularly clever but making up for that with a certain charm.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
From a tight satire about the emptiness of materialism, El Crimen degenerates into such macabre silliness, it's as if another director stepped in and -- rather like Don Antonio -- destroyed a beautiful thing.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
El Crimen Perfecto loses some steam in the final quarter, but still has enough style to make you want to see how it all shakes out.
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
There are lots of wicked laughs here, if nothing tremendously original.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Like any good maker of black comedy, Iglesia measures his humor in deviations from the norm.
Dallas Morning News
Mario Tarradell
Packs laughs, over-the-top plot twists and even a socially conscious message or two into a twisted story about the ruthless competition between a couple of would-be managers in a sprawling department store.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
El Crimen Perfecto has energy, color, spirit and lively performances, but what it does not have are very many laughs.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
Writer-director lex de la Iglesia has made it clear that all rules are off and all our expectations are moot. Not satisfied merely to follow his premise out the window, he's going to drag it up to the 50th floor, first.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
So much of El Crimen Perfecto sustains such a dazzlingly vital pitch it makes the typical American studio attempt at far-out black comedy look pretty far-in, and pretty pale.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
El Crimen Perfecto is a joyride that leaves you feeling drunk and dizzy and swearing that you haven't touched a drop.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
The Spanish have been masters of sly black comedy, and El Crimen Perfecto (The Perfect Crime) is a splendid example.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
There's not enough good material to fill the film's overlong 105 minutes.
New York Times
Dana Stevens
Like the Ferris wheel that serves as the setting for one of its climactic scenes, El Crimen Perfecto is a bright, gaudy and tremendously satisfying ride.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
Director Alex de la Iglesia has much to teach the world-at-large about making smart, lively social satire that bows to past masters without being hobbled by self-consciousness.
Village Voice
Jorge Morales
Spanish director de la Iglesia continues his streak of caustic social satires framed as send-ups of Hollywood genre clichs.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Spanish auteur lex de la Iglesia continues to show absolutely no signs of reconciling his dramatic and comedic impulses.
