While “Disclaimer” has received mostly positive reviews, there are a few criticisms that prevent it from reaching over 90% on Rotten Tomatoes; Marshall Shaffer of Decider says: “Rather than expressing the contradictions in human behavior, Cuaron simply balks at trying to understand any of them; 'Disclaimer' is unable to reconcile the breadth of its scope with the lack of detail it seeks to emphasize”

Nina Metz of the Chicago Tribune also put it simply: “Well-made and wonderfully acted, in the end ‘Disclaimer’ is also emotionally dishonest”

Whatever the criticism, it is clear that “Disclaimer” is getting a lot of attention right now, largely because of its engaging premise and talented cast of actors If you're looking for something to keep you hooked, this psycho thriller will surely do the trick
