Dueling Critics

“With ‘Kimi,’ director Steven Soderbergh and screenwriter David Koepp have dazzlingly updated ‘Rear Window’ for the work-from-home age: their film puts a thrillingly contemporary spin on a vintage paranoia-drenched premise…It’s hard to watch ‘Kimi’ and not pine for the times when films this stylish, gripping and brisk were the work of major studios.”

“The most glaring problem here, and the one hardest to explain, is Soderbergh’s failure to elicit any warmth or charm from Zoë Kravitz…In a curious decision, Kravitz chooses to make her character entirely unpleasant, nasty to everyone with whom she interacts.”
