A perversely courageous disaster that audiences will simply hate.

Director Frears seems more interested in the atmosphere than the narrative.

Mary Reilly works as Gothic melodrama because it understands the genre so well.

Unfortunately, your response to the bizarre story of terror and lust that dare not speak their name is pretty well limited to Roberts' response -- which is, in turn, limited by her technique.

Mary Reilly is haunting, not only because of its foggy, shadowy settings, but because of the questions it encourages us to ask about ourselves and others.

[Roberts's] acting is of the Melrose Place/Andrew Shue variety, her eyes blank and mouth often agape (not unlike the photo of her used in the print ads).

If nothing else, proves that when you take Julia's lipstick away, much of her appeal goes, too.
