0
exciting and direct , with ghost imagery that shows just enough to keep us on our toes .
1

subversive , meditative , clinical and poetic , the piano teacher is a daring work of genius .

1
there 's no real reason to see it , and no real reason not to .

paxton 's uneven directorial debut fails to unlock the full potential of what is in many ways a fresh and dramatically substantial spin on the genre .

as a movie , it never seems fresh and vital . it never plays as dramatic even when dramatic things happen to people . it labours as storytelling .
