Entertainment Reviews:
The movie casts such a seductive air of mystery that the resolution feels anticlimactic, yet there's plenty to enjoy along the way, particularly Hawke's nuanced lead performance as a quiet man with secrets of his own.

It is guaranteed to haunt you for awhile.
Newark Star-Ledger
Pawlikowski's latest feels like a vague dream, though one that's listless and evaporates quickly upon awakening.

3.5 stars out of 4 -- Something is going on, and as the movie continues, we become more alert to signals from beneath the surface....So much depends here on the Ethan Hawke performance.

3 stars out of 5 -- Aided by dreamlike lensing and a raft of enigmatic supporting characters, writer/director Pawel Pawlikowski seeks to channel the paranoid spirit of early Polanski...
Total Film
Rating: 2/5 --
A thankless lead vehicle for Ethan Hawke who's left largely stranded by writer-director Pawel Pawlikowski's opaque adaptation of Douglas Kennedy's novel.

The Woman in the Fifth is an interesting chameleon until it runs out of disguises, and all that was transitory just looks transparent.

Product Description:
A writer stranded in Paris falls into a strange relationship with a mysterious woman in this drama from writer and director Pawel Pawlikowski. Tom Ricks (Ethan Hawke) is an American novelist who has been wrestling with writers' block since the publication of his first book. Tom is married to Nathalie (Delphine Chuillot) but their relationship has taken a turn for the worse, and after she goes home to France with their daughter Chloe (Julie Papillon) in tow, Tom flies there in hopes of reconciling with her. However, Tom is robbed shortly after arriving, and is stuck with no money and nowhere to go. He is befriended by Sezer (Samir Guesmi), who gives him a job as a night watchman and a room in a cheap hotel, but for all his generosity, Tom isn't sure he trusts his benefactor. He then meets Margit (Kristin Scott Thomas), a beautiful woman with a literary bent, and ends up spending the night with her. But what begins as a passing fling takes on a more sinister cast as Margit sends Tom through a series of increasingly bizarre experiences in the interest of reawakening his muse. LA FEMME DU 5E (aka THE WOMAN IN THE FIFTH) received its North American debut at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival.
