The website Rotten Tomatoes highly appreciated Hall's acting, pointing out the benefits of her performance for the movie. Rebecca Hall is known for participating in various kinds of movies, including drama, thriller, comedy, romance, horror, science fiction, fantasy and adventure, to name a few.

She made her onscreen debut in the television adaptation of "The Camomile Lawn" at the age of 10.
