At some point, ordinary human compassion must take up the slack. Boyle isn't a zippy enough director to make up for what's missing. No one is.

I'm not surprised that in my youth I thought Shallow Grave was a pretty cool movie. What surprises me now is that the adults at the time gave this ridiculous movie a pass.

A reasonably enjoyable (for those captivated by this sort of thing) black comedy/noir thriller.

This stylish, exhilarating feature debut Scottish director Boyle shows impressive command over the film medium. It's new type of British film, more influenced by Tarantino and the Coen brothers than any British tradition--Boyle is a talent to watch.

Fox, McGregor and Eccleston merely mill around the screen like the kind of living-dead folks we usually see rising from the grave.

An almost astonishingly interminable thriller...

Class has its place, but some of us prefer our cut-'em-ups a little more lowdown.

"Shallow Grave" is a story that goes from bad to worse to nasty during its duration. The performances are solid as you can never get a clear read on anyone's motives right until it's about to be revealed. One of the most solid debuts anyone could ask for.

A tight little thriller, filled with exhilarating twists, that quickly establishes its artistic contract with the audience.

While it is not a great film, it is a good first film, amply demonstrating Boyle's catchy visual flair and rat-a-tat sense of tempo, as well as Hodge's ear for dialogue and intuitive sense of character dynamics

The three ... especially Fox--do well.

Boyle's cool manner and the performances ultimately ratchet Shallow Grave past the ranks of standard thriller fare.
