Movie Review - "Tell No One"

The French mystery thriller "Tell No One" keeps you on the edge of your seat-and your brain. Its integrated, intricate plot demands the utmost concentration for keeping up with a host of twists and turns. All mysteries are cleared up and resolved at the end, when the protagonist finally figures out what actually happened to his murdered wife some years before.

"Tell No One" has its share of evil participants, both actual criminals and law enforcement personnel completely corrupted. Villains are not raging psychos, but usually low-key wretches who describe their deeds and intentions matter-of-factly. In the same way, fanatical parental love is presented as a means for complicating matters further.

A complex movie like this easily calls for a second viewing to study its lines, body language, and subtleties again. Such a repeat showing should be just as enjoyable as the first.
