Village Voice
Aside from some inspired uses of chiaroscuro lighting, the movie around Depardieu is mostly derivative. - 40

In a way, the occasionally lugubrious undertones and casual cruelties suit the setting, but the tragic heft Mr. Martinez seems to be pushing for doesn’t materialize. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
Viktor would be campy fun if it wasn't so relentlessly tedious. - 20
New York Daily News
Preposterous things are everywhere in this lethargic thriller.
