With domestic disturbances, someone calls the cops. With this DOA, someone had better call the coroner.

The most surprising thing about the movie is that somebody bothered to make it.

Jay Carr Boston Globe (Top Critic)

Replacing suspense with formula, Domestic Disturbance doesn't make nearly the ripple it could have made.

Michael Atkinson Village Voice (Top Critic)

It's dire, unimaginative silliness.

Since it purports to be a thriller, well, let's just say the edge of your seat doesn't exactly get a workout.

It's big and dumb, all right -- the sort of thing you'd like to shoot with an elephant gun to put out of its misery.

Movies like Domestic Disturbance leave me dispirited. There's nothing likable, exciting, or intriguing about them.

This film quickly sinks into a lame, ultra-predictable storyline that would never have made it past the made-for-cable-TV editorial commission.

The movie seems to have been slapped together by an editor with attention-deficit disorder... introduces a new, risible complication with nearly every scene...

Director Harold Becker helms what amounts to be a generic psychological drama that is about as complicated as a same-colored Rubix cube.

Hits one predictable plot point after another until its rather sudden conclusion.

A fog of by-the-numbers cliches, unbelievable coincidences, and blatant theft from Hitchcock.

The real 'disturbance' is not in the home, but in the careers of all involved.

Forget about dramatic tension. Or subtlety and nuance.

It's depressing, but you could swing a soccer mom through a multiplex and hit a half-dozen other American movies as mindless as this one.

The trailer tells the whole story and the movie telegraphs its punches.
