Amazon.co.uk Review
Movie critic Roger Ebert made this amusing observation about Malice: "This is the only movie I can recall in which an entire subplot about a serial killer is thrown in simply for atmosphere". He's referring to the fact that this hokey but highly charged thriller is so packed with plot twists and red herrings that you'll soon find yourself so confused that you just have to sit back and hope that it will all make sense by the time the credits roll. It never does make much sense, but the movie at least has the look, feel, and twisted momentum of a really good thriller, and the talent on both sides of the camera is pretty impressive. Alec Baldwin plays a hot-shot surgeon who meets up with an old med-school buddy (Bill Pullman), whose wife (Nicole Kidman) has no objections when Baldwin moves into the upstairs room of their New England Victorian home. The situation's ripe for intrigue, suspicion, temptation, emergency surgery, legal proceedings, and just about anything else you'd find in a movie that desperately struggles to out-Hitchcock Hitchcock. Talk about McGuffins--this movie's chock full of 'em! When the plot thickens to the consistency and clarity of quicksand, you can still enjoy the darkly stylish work of master cinematographer Gordon Willis--or you can check out director Harold Becker's more coherent thriller Sea of Love. With Kidman and Baldwin working up a steamy lather, this one's just fun enough to be an agreeable waste of time. --Jeff Shannon

The Daily Star
This brilliant, electrifying thriller is a polished pleasure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant plot with a twist!, 15 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Malice [VHS] [1994] (VHS Tape)
Malice is almost a 'film noir' and could almost have been written in that era! It combines two main plots - one in which a school teacher tries to find out who is murdering female students (and cutting off their hair!) and another in which his wife sues the hospital and surgeon who have removed both of her ovaries during an operation. Without revealing the twist at the end, there is one part I can't fathom, which is why Nicole Kidman's character puts up with Alec Baldwin's surgeon bonking the pants of other women in her house! Alec Baldwin is probably the best player in this movie by some stretch: "You ask me if I have a God complex?" (when another surgeon says he plays God in the operating theatre) "Let me tell you something, I AM GOD!" Nicole Kidman is good as the calculating, money-pinching anti-heroine, but the actress who plays her mother is fantastic. If you like suspense and and unexpected endings, you'll love this movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Speak of the Devil...", 27 Jun 2007
By Kona (Emerald City) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)      
This review is from: Malice [DVD] [1994] (DVD)
Tracy and Andy Safian (Nicole Kidman, Bill Pullman) are a young couple just starting out in life. He's an associate dean at the college and she's a teacher, and their big, old house needs repairs. To make ends meet, they rent out the upstairs room to an old high school classmate of Andy's, Dr. Jed Hill (Alec Baldwin). Tracy thinks he's impossibly arrogant but Andy likes him. One day, Tracy is rushed to the hospital with life-threatening pains, and Jed is the surgeon on call. His actions will destroy all of their lives.

This is one creepy thriller with great acting and a script that will keep you guessing - and on the edge of your seat. Baldwin is perfectly cast as the megalomaniac doctor. He's both attractive and repulsive and owns the screen. Kidman shows quite an acting range, going from ideal wife to something very shocking indeed. Pullman is Everyman, struggling to get by, doing his best, and being easily fooled. There is a scary subplot about a rapist on campus that is unnecessary, except to establish the close friendship between Andy and a hard-boiled police detective, well-played by Bebe Neuwirth. Anne Bancroft shines in a small part as Tracy's alcoholic mother. The story is fast-paced, intense, and full of surprises. If you like psychological thrillers, you'll enjoy "Malice."
