Reviews


78
Austin Chronicle - Unnamed
The film is an exhilarating and inventive spectacle that makes every other action film from the last 10 years look as obsolete as the Lumière brothers running that train at you back in 1896.
75
Slant Magazine - Ed Gonzalez
The film's unbelievably precise choreography of action seeks to tap into a universal feeling of powerlessness.
70
The Hollywood Reporter - Stephen Dalton
Hardcore blasts along like a supercharged computer-game shoot-em-up, bursting with sick humor and splatterpunk violence.
70
Variety - Dennis Harvey
Hardcore feels like umpteen post-“Star Wars” action blockbusters trash-compacted into one — and whether that fundamentally appeals or not, the ingenuity of effort is undeniably high.
67
The Film Stage - Ethan Vestby
It feels longer than 90 minute because, despite changing locations frequently enough, Ilya Naishuller‘s debut feature never really has a strong sense of structure nor escalation to make it as truly kinetic as it wants. Yet, at least to some degree, the right spirit is there to lift it through some of the deadening stretches.
