Critics Consensus: Profile's unique narrative gimmick is enough to carry the film partway, but it's ultimately overwhelmed by an increasingly ludicrous plot.

Reviews

Daily Record (UK)

Ian Bunting

The tension is built really well but as it’s coming to a crescendo, the movie just ends, which prevents Profile from achieving the instant modern classic moniker it so nearly has in its grasp.

A Scary must see thriller

The biggest key to the film's success is that creeping around the edges of the exploitation thriller is a sly comment on our increasingly digital lives... It's a devious move, one that feels just right for a film this diabolically slick and well-crafted.

An intense film that gets more and more frustrating as it goes on, but you just can't look away.

The ratcheting tension is sadly punctured by unintentionally hilarious scenes...
