The Moment (2013 film) reviews. Ronnie Scheib of "Variety" wrote, "Jennifer Jason Leigh is as radiant and uncompromising as ever in this convoluted and repetitive psychological thriller". Frank Scheck of "The Hollywood Reporter" wrote, "Although Jennifer Jason Leigh delivers a compelling turn, this Hitchcock-style drama ties itself in too many knots." Ben Kenigsberg of "The New York Times" compared it to the work of David Lynch, but said that the film's conceit "seems too pat to undergird a work of genuine surrealism". Betsy Sharkey of "The Los Angeles Times" called it "more muddled than the mind and the maze it is caught up in."
