Although the film was probably well made and the actors earned their pay the story was absurd and repulsive. What started out looking like an interesting story quickly became a series of implausible events that lead to a repulsive ending. An... Full review

This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The story was confused, pointless, and boring. The acting by Kingsley and Connelly was magnificent, but the other actors were dreadfully weak. It is beyond me why a major studio... Full review

House of Sand and Fog is melancholy at its most potent.
But its the direction, editing and performances that lift this wonderful work of fiction to a level of filmmaking that is so satisfying.
A haunting and potent film not to be missed.

This story is somewhat amazing, and yet somewhat raw at the same time.
It was excellent, but for mature people only, as two of the characters explicitly have sex, and a lot of the themes could be slightly strange to certain people.

The ensuing battle of wills is underpinned by deadly sins pride, wrath and the lust of a married policeman whose attempts to help Kathy lead to disaster resulting in a dark film full of pity and compassion.
Human flaws drive the inexorable engine of tragedy in first-time director Vadim Perelmans brooding, atmospheric adaptation of Andre Dubus IIIs novel.

As a DreamWorks fan, I was hoping that "House of Sand and Fog" would be a surprise contender at the Oscars.
However, the film got lost in the shuffle of year-end openers, and its makers had to content themselves with a handful of nominations and minor-awards wins.
