Knox Goes Away

"[It] might have proved entertaining if the film had been intended as an black comedy. Unfortunately, Keaton goes in a more neo-noir direction, with the generally grim tone only accentuating the narrative absurdities" 

"A silky and entrancing thriller directed by its star, Michael Keaton (...) In addition to being a noir that holds you exactly the way a noir should, it may be one of the best dramas about dementia I’ve ever seen. 

"The kind of absorbing old fashioned, solidly crafted and immersive dramatic thriller that you might have seen Bogart or a Robert Mitchum do in their later years." 

"It’s is undercut by stilted dialogue and a stultified pace that turns what could have been a fun thriller into an experience that’s sometimes laughably plodding." 

"This is Keaton's film to carry every step of the way, and he turns in a typically fine and layered performance as a man who might find relief in the loss of his memories (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" 

"It’s a fascinating premise, one that is methodically and quietly built, but ultimately loses any grit, atmosphere, suspense, or emotion it could possibly carry because of a few narrative headscratchers (...) Rating: ★ (out of 4)" 

"An exemplary crime drama that looks at old cliches with a fresh slant and gives a reliable but still surprising star a chance to demonstrate the range and depth of character he rarely gets the chance to explore (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
