A slick, cat-and-mouse thriller that unfolds with sharply-diminishing plausibility.

The film plays like two movies in one and they are sadly somewhat in conflict with one another.
October 18, 2008
Stylishly directed and superbly acted but ultimately disappointing thriller, thanks to an over-familiar plot and some laughably bad dialogue.
October 18, 2008
An indigestible concoction of ingredients thrown together without the benefit of any serious consideration of logic.

It's as if they took a Hitchcock movie and dropped the style and IQ level about 85 percent.

Um sub-Jade (e quem se lembra daquele longa dirigido por William Friedkin sabe o que ser um "sub-Jade" significa) que teria sido lançado diretamente no Cine Privê da Band caso não contasse com um elenco tão célebre.

A would-be erotic thriller with no heat and zero chills, Deception has the kind of glassy, glossy sheen and risible story that mean to suggest Basic Instinct but instead invoke lesser laughers like Jade and Sliver.

There's not a twist in this flimsy and moth-eaten plot that isn't both contrived and transparent and not a character who hasn't been hopelessly manipulated by the needs of the narrative.

It is about as erotic as a midweek National Express coach journey to Hitchin.

Everything is wrong pretty much from the start of this misbegotten adventure in Adrian Lyne territory, including but not limited to the strained mind games that drive the plot, and the tentative New York accents on the actors from Australia and Scotland.
April 25, 2008
Despite a cast that includes double-crossers Hugh Jackman and Ewan McGregor and Michelle Williams caught in the middle, the film is a yawn.

When you advertise an erotic thriller and then give us a comedy, that's deception in any language.
