What to Know

Critics Consensus

While it's better than a fair number of other adultery-fueled stalker films, Fatale fails to generate as much heat as the superior erotic thrillers it evokes.

Jake Wilson The Age (Australia) The writing is notably wooden, though the cast is skilled enough this may not register straight away. Once the penny drops, the film becomes a rather fascinating study in all the tricks actors use to bring routine dialogue to life. Rated: 3/5 May 5, 2021 Full Review Chris Hewitt Minneapolis Star Tribune I guess we've arrived at the point where even movie titles are dogwhistles? Rated: 1.5/4 Jan 14, 2021 Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times The tedious thriller starring Michael Ealy and Hilary Swank adds nothing new to the genre of female psycho movies... Rated: 1.5/4 Jan 9, 2021 Full Review Joe Lipsett Bloody Disgusting Despite being frequently absurd and illogical, there’s something pleasurably trashy about Fatale. It is quite watchable and the exploration of race, while frequently verging on stereotypical, expands the scope of the subgenre in intriguing directions. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 23, 2023 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut While the result is more engaging than one would expect, make no mistake, Fatale is exactly the type of movie you think it is going in and was made for the ones who enjoy the genre. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 9, 2022 Full Review Zoë Rose Bryant Loud and Clear Reviews Fatale’s story is a not-so-subtle riff on 1987’s Fatal Attraction, but Hilary Swank’s engrossing performance is enough to keep us engaged regardless. Rated: 3/5 Sep 1, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
