TOMATOMETER
...Familiar evil from the fresh perspective of an innocent....Perfectly accompanies THE TIN DRUM... -- Rating: B+
Entertainment Weekly
...THE OGRE marks a triumphant return to filmmaking for Schlondorff....THE OGRE is a wrenching, richly imaginative tale of innocence, corruption and redemption...
Los Angeles Times
...Malkovich's prodigious work lends THE OGRE just one of its knotty mysteries in this epic-in-a-psyche....Daring -- and unnerving...
Chicago Sun-Times
...Mr. Malkovich gives an understated performance that captures the ambiguity of a character who does monstrous things yet remains a tenderhearted innocent...
New York Times
