The Night Clerk is sympathetic, yes, in that it doesnt treat Bart as some kind of incomprehensible other. Mark Reviews Movies

De Armas renders a flimsy character as earnestly sympathetic and smolderingly sexy with a single expression a feat the movie doesnt deserve. Decider

Rather than augment Barts sense of confusion and his separation of intimacy from privacy, it pushes a generic thriller thats itself devoid of drama. The Film Stage
