	Media	Author	Review
		John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"Fans who have followed the Korean auteur since 2003's Oldboy will not be disappointed, but a high creep-out factor and top-drawer cast also should attract genre fans who've never heard of him"
		Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Park has built a hothouse of erotic tension (...) Some will find it too much. Screw them. Park's goal is to bust form, not conform to it. Take Stoker for what it is: a thriller of savage beauty (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"
		Guy Lodge Variety	"Led by a brilliant Mia Wasikowska (...) this exquisitely designed and scored pic will bewilder as many viewers as it bewitches"
		Olly Richards Empire	"An intense mix of horror, thriller and domestic drama, this is exquisite filmmaking. (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of five)"
		Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"The chilling and stylish and aggressively creepy 'Stoker' begins at the end and takes us on a shocking and lurid journey before we land right where we started, now seeing every small detail through a different lens. It's disturbingly good (...) Rating: ★★★★½ (out of five)"
		A. O. Scott The New York Times	"The final act of 'Stoker' walks a fine line between the sensational and the silly. Mr. Park is less interested in narrative suspense than in carefully orchestrated shocks and camouflaged motives"
		Mick LaSalle SFGATE	"The movie reveals itself as not merely dull, but pointless"
