Rating: B- --
Haneke's film is disturbing to watch, but that is exactly the point. In an era where the media has pretty much desensitized violence, Haneke has found a way to make it all seem uncomfortable.

Bowling Green Daily News
Haneke's assault on our fantasy lives is shallow, unimaginative, and glacially unengaged -- a sucker punch without the redeeming passion of punk.

New York Magazine/Vulture
Funny Games is the most disturbing film I have ever seen.

The Daily Gazette (Schenectady, NY)
Defenders of Funny Games repeatedly point out that it shouldn't be fun. But if it isn't, then it should at least be subversive.

Stop Smiling
Rating: 5/6 --
It's not a reassuring vision but that's not the name of Haneke's particular game.

Time Out
The film's polemic on violence in modern popular culture has a self-defeating narcissism; cheap comic violence is used to propel the action forward rather than develop plot or characters.

Rating: 3/4 --
A cool, calculated exercise in serious discomfort.
