The Underneath Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Proceeding gracefully and without difficulty through three or four time frames at once, The Underneath alternates between an armored-car robbery carried out by the hero as an inside job and various stages in his past leading up to it.
The Virginian-Pilot
Mal Vincent
This relatively simple narrative is hidden amid multiple flashbacks that are meant to keep the viewer guessing. They're more likely to keep them irritated.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
A solid, but unremarkable neo-noir.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...an erratic yet mostly rewarding thriller that benefits substantially from its strong performances and often enthralling visuals...
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
Pulp Fiction fresh.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Stylish, arty and quite enjoyable.
Cinema Writer
Jay Antani
An absorbing, if an occasionally plodding, experience.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
One of Soderbbergh's weakest (and unnecessary) films, this exercise in film noir, a remake of the 1949 classic Criss Cross, is marred by weak dialogue and formulaic plot, again stressing the need of a gifted helmer like Soderbergh for stronger narrative
New York Times
Caryn James
Too chaotic to work as a thriller.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
What The Underneath lacks is the kind of emotional connection that the best film noirs have. Instead of involving, this film is distancing, too given to admiring its own shiny surface.
San Francisco Chronicle
Steven Winn
The film may turn out to have been more of a stylistic adventure for the director than for an audience.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Why did Soderbergh want to remake an old film noir, anyway? Take out the crime elements and flesh out the human elements here, and you have a more interesting movie, I think.
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
A diverting piece of moviemaking, thanks primarily to fine direction by Soderbergh.
Washington Post
Joe Brown
Downbeat, laconically funny, arty (maybe a touch too arty), it's simmering, smoldering lowlife fun, like a good episode of Twin Peaks without the self-conscious weirdness.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
As tales of sex and sinfulness go, Soderbergh's fourth film doesn't deliver.
