Entertainment Reviews:
The movie is perfect in its attention to detail, in its casting of Montand as the political prisoner. Confession fails as entertainment while it succeeds as a statement.

Rating: 4/4 --
The structure becomes complex but never confusing, and Costa-Gavras always seems to be urgently on the move, wanting to tell us more than can be told.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
The Confession exhibits signs of post-masterpiece fatigue, though it makes up for some of it with sheer gutsiness.

Rating: 4/4 --
Costa-Gavras dramatizes Gérard's ordeal and makes us feel his pain, his exhaustion, but most of all the terrible loss of his sense of self.
