Witness comes billed as a thriller, but it’s so much more than a thriller that I wish they hadn’t even used the word « murder » in the ads. This is, first of all, an electrifying and poignant love story. Then it is a movie about the choices we make in life and the choices that other people make for us. Only then is it a thriller. — Roger Ebert

A film that, while not a solid mix of its genres, is solidly entertaining. — Morgan R. Lewis
