    The New York Times Manohla Dargis

    It takes Mr. Silva a while to finish his story, but the ending of The Maid is so intelligently handled and so generously and honestly conceived, it proves well worth the wait.

    Los Angeles Times Kenneth Turan

    The Maid has that particular gift of leaving you off balance in the best possible way, and whenever something like that comes around you owe it to yourself to check it out.

    Variety Justin Chang

    Saavedra is riveting as a servant whose unblinking focus on her routine masks a profound loneliness.

    Entertainment Weekly Lisa Schwarzbaum

    Raquel's devotion to her employer is barbed with hatred, need, and an insecurity she manifests through constant tiny acts of sabotage that would be funny if they weren't also so chilling -- bordering on psychotic.

The Maid by wgoldman
The simplicity of storyline and theme in foreign films often repeated... such is the case for The Maid. Something is said (or in this case little is said by the maid), yet her acting and film direction, convey one of life's desires.... a quest for recognition by others and the freedom to be one's own person.

The Maid by aubsdes
Human relationships can trump stereotyping, racism and classism. Not an easy road. The Maid makes you think and makes you ache and finally makes you hope. The way we view each other is informed by the way we view ourselves. Raquel transcends..with a little help from her friends..and she becomes the hero that saves herself. I Loved this movie.

The Maid by ahliska1
Nuanced performance by Catalina Saavedra elevates slight story.
