  • 1. Fredrik Fyhr
    3 / 4

    Translated from swedish: The film was a prestige production, with big names and authentic Italian settings designed to boost travel agencies, but the story wasn't the typical crowd-pleaser. One of the sacred screenplay rules in Hollywood is not to alienate audiences through unsympathetic characters, and here the film seems to have a problem.

    3 / 5

    Translated from swedish: Despite talented actors, "The Talented Mr. Ripley" is nothing more than an okay thriller lite.

  • 3. Nöjesguiden
    3 / 6

    Translated from swedish: If it weren't for Cate Blanchett's ambivalently elusive upper-class American performance, I would have urged eager moviegoers to sit at the very end of the theater row and slip out somewhere after the first murder.
