Added Oct 08, 2017: Can't find fault with the actors and its beautiful cinematography but the story was a big mess though based on the celebrated author Daphne du Maurier's mystery novel of same name. Issue was that Rachel was made out to…

Already one of my favorite books, and the movie did not disappoint. Sam Claflin perfectly portrays Philip, an orphan who falls madly in love with his cousin Rachel (Rachel Weisz at her most stunning) who may or may not be a murderess. The…

If you are a fan of Daphne Du Maurier ("Rebecca"), then you'll enjoy this similarly dark and mysterious love story. Rachel Weisz was brilliant as the enigmatic Rachel, and I enjoyed seeing Holliday Grainger here after watching her in the…

A bit dark, but a good story with a surprising plot twist at the end,

This movie had so much promise, then fell completely flat at the end

It really looks like a Daphne du Maurier-esque drama, in which a tragedy shows up somewhere over the rainbow.

Good story but a slow movie..

Rachel Weisz acted well in the part. Was interested in most of the movie until the weak and confusing ending.

Loved it! Complex and well acted.

I'm normally a sucker for romantic mystery and gothic atmosphere, but the pacing is so choppy and muddled that the film quickly loses steam. I was rather bored to be honest, a shame, considering the lovely production values.

mediocre at best. Muddled.

Rachel Weisz's talents are wasted in this muddy Gothic romance/possible murder mystery as she plays a femme fatale, newly arrived from Italy, who's suspected of poisoning her former husband. Lots of arguing that leads to nowhere. The two…

Ditto on a previous comment: "What was the point of resources being used to make this film"

Excellent film based on the book by Daphne Dumarier. Beautifully filmed, lovely costumes, great acting.

Have not read the book by Daphne Du Maurier, nor do I remember seeing the two previous depictions (1952 movie and a 1983 four part tv mini series). Although there was impressive quality acting, I found the young English man to have been…

Read the book, I could not put it down. The movie does not do the book justice.

What was the point of resources being used to make this film which, while nice to look at and well-acted, was devoid of content?

Intriguing story with a twist. Rachel Weisz plays the part well.

We'd recommend this slightly, but not strongly. It just didn't have the impact we expected. The acting was good and the sets and costuming as well. It moved a tad slow (but that is expected) and built up, but the ending was not completely…

As seems invariably the case, this remake of a 1952 Burton/De Havilland film is less satisfying. Perhaps there will never be a replacement for the old black and white efforts. Having said this, Rachel Weisz plays the black widow very well…

Don't read any of the old comments as too many tell too much of the story (read them after watching). Just watch it without knowing anything. I didn't understand the DVD cover photo until finishing the entire film. I was surprised to find…

Man, I wanted to like this SO badly. I love Rachel Weisz and this had all the makings of a creepy Victorian thriller. However, all of this fell flat, resulting in a dull, predictable story.

Wow...what an incredibly boring cliche story.....skip it and forget it.

I wanted it to be better, but not sure how. As others said below, its not the actors.... they did a fine job in their respective roles, the writing was just lacking for me. The movie starts and ends with the theme "did she or didn't…
