Reviews


88
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland plumb the violence of the mind with slashing wit and shocking gravity. Happy nightmares.
80
Time - Richard Corliss
Boyle's ingenuity with the camera gives this fraught journey plenty of menace and pizazz.
80
L.A. Weekly - John Powers
The movie is mercifully uncontaminated by the smarty-pants self-reflexiveness that has sucked the lifeblood from nearly all post-"Scream" horror pictures. Clever enough not to be too clever, Boyle and Garland play their story straight -- they just want to give you the creeps -- and, by so doing, bring the undead back to cinematic life.
78
Austin Chronicle - Kimberley Jones
There’s gore, all right, although the real terror lies in the tease, and the often dark, herky-jerky DV format ratchets up the tension to an almost unbearable degree.
75
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - Rick Groen
Around about the third act, the picture does what no self-respecting virus ever would -- relents, turns confused, and lets our immune system fight back with thoughts of its own, with distracting cavils about the logic of the plot and the slightness of the themes.
