Rubberneck Ratings & Reviews
amNewYork
Robert Levin
Alex Karpovsky's performance digs out the character's menacing, damaged and sympathetic qualities in equal measure.
Boston Phoenix
Peter Keough
A disturbing and deceptively subtle psychological thriller ...
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
A creepy number, half suspense drama and half brooding character study, with a strong dash of local flavor and a low-budget feel.
Variety
Ronnie Scheib
Karpovsky's pic seldom surprises, its strengths lying in a leisurely journey toward a clearly predestined denouement.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
One can only watch so many shots of the daily goings-on in a research facility without tuning out a bit.
Bloomberg News
Greg Evans
"Rubberneck" charts Paul's mental deterioration, the tension stretched well beyond his breaking point and my patience.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
Immediately put me in mind of the classic slow burn of vintage thrillers like Fritz Lang's "M" and Michael Powell's "Peeping Tom"...
New York Times
Rachel Saltz
It's dragged down by non-scene after non-scene, and filmmaking choices that don't earn their keep.
NPR
Ian Buckwalter
Both the mystery and the character piece wind up feeling incomplete.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
The film works better as an uncomfortable character drama than as a murky family mystery, which Karpovsky deepens with some psychobabble. Still, a nicely sinister and shuddersome effort.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
Rubberneck feels more like an attempt to pull off a psychological thriller than a credible example of same, as if it were a sample reel for some future project.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
It's like a homicide thriller directed by Todd Solondz.
Village Voice
Ernest Hardy
Unsettling [and] tough-minded ...
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
Boston-area actor-writer-director Alex Karpovsky creates an original story of obsession, delusion and murder that is fresh and well made.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
Although it's initially jarring to see Karpovsky tackle overly serious material both behind and in front of the camera, "Rubberneck" has more in common with the growing Karpovsky oeuvre than it may appear -- and even inadvertently critiques it.
Hollywood & Fine
Marshall Fine
With Hitchcockian self-assurance, Karpovsky is able to inject an element of surprise and uncertainty even into the film's final moments.
Slant Magazine
Jesse Cataldo
The film takes on high-concept ideas that it can't sustain, and which only make its other problems more obvious.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
...this is impressive filmmaking, especially from a filmmaker who also delivers a complex, sympathetic performance despite his character's unsettling characteristics.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Tale of romantic obsession trades nail-biting suspense for credible realism.
DVDTalk.com
Jason Bailey
It's a tight, well-made character study, though its surrender to convention in the closing passages is a real letdown.
