United States | Rolling Stone | Watching Haneke's film is, aptly enough, a challenge and a punishment. But watching Huppert, a great actress tearing into a landmark role, is riveting." | POS |
United States | The Washington Post | "A disconcertingly assured tango between tenderness and brutality." | POS |
United States | The Hollywood Reporter | "If the film had been in less-capable hands, the subject matter could have easily lent itself to eye-rolling ridicule, but Huppert and Haneke manage to keep the credibility intact" | POS |
United Kingdom | BBC | "A dark, intelligent, and thought-provoking examination of female repression.(...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)" | POS |
United States | Entertainment Weekly | "Those who would follow Haneke on his creepy explorations in The Piano Teacher are rewarded by brutal, committed performances from Huppert and Magimel." | POS |
United States | Newsday | "A disconcertingly riveting anti-love story." | POS |
