Critics consensus

“Sergio Castellitto's latest film has a heavy dose of melodrama and is populated with unlikable characters.”

Don't Move is saved from outright awfulness by the performances of its two leads.

You don't like Don't Move, you admire it for daring to be a bit more complex, for caring about characters who are hard to care about and for plowing forward through all manner of ugly business.

Terry Lawson

RTDetroit Free PressJun 3, 2005

Though beautifully shot and acted, Don't Move still holds limited appeal.

Kam Williams

RTUpstage MagazineJun 1, 2007

Plausibly explores the question of whether a liaison initially based on a carnal assault and fueled by an unquenchable lust has any chance of evolving into a relationship based on intimacy, affection and genuine trust.
