Reviews

Critically, "Don't You Recognize Me?" received mixed reactions. On IMDb, the film holds a modest rating of 5.4/10, indicating a lukewarm reception among viewers. Some critics praised the film for its intriguing premise and Toman's committed performance, noting that the movie's suspenseful moments kept the audience engaged intermittently. For instance, some reviewers highlighted the atmospheric tension and the film’s attempt to explore psychological depth as commendable aspects. However, others pointed out that the narrative pacing was uneven, and the storyline lacked sufficient originality or development, which detracted from the overall impact. Critics also mentioned that while the premise offered potential for a gripping thriller, the execution occasionally felt predictable and underwhelming. The film did not receive widespread coverage on platforms like Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic, suggesting it remained relatively under the radar. Overall, "Don't You Recognize Me?" may appeal to viewers interested in psychological thrillers with a focus on character-driven drama, but it might fall short for those seeking a more fast-paced or innovative thriller experience.
