Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: [Mr. Odar uses] graceful wide-screen compositions and haunting sound design to create a compelling mood of menace, anxiety and sorrow.
Fresh: "The Silence" is an exemplary German-language thriller, a complex and disturbing examination of guilt, violence and psychological torment that chills us to the core not once but two times over.
Fresh: Swiss-born director Baran bo Odar's second feature film is a finely crafted psychological drama that uses a brutal crime to delve into the depths of human misery.
Fresh: "The Silence" is more like an intriguing work of misdirection than a great crime film, but it has a dreamlike and disturbing undertow you won't soon forget, and Odar is unquestionably a director to watch.

Rotten Tomatoes
I forgot the first rule of movie selection, that Rotten Tomatoes almost always gets it backwards, and rented this. It's boring, horribly acted and engenders no sense of empathy for the protagonist at all.
