Despite some major structural weaknesses, the cannily manipulated combination of mystery, gore and kinky sex adds up to a slick commercial package. Full Review

The film has a promising beginning. However, as the story develops, it turns more implausible and superficial... arriving at an ending that adds nothing. [Full Review in Spanish] Full Review

Rating: 4/4 -- Dressed to Kill remains a prime example of how De Palma is able to marry his awesome technical prowess to the material, using his dazzling feats of cinematic derring-do to propel his stories rather than bury their weaknesses. Full Review
