San Francisco Chronicle -
Bucking the lava tide of computer special effects gushing out of Hollywood this season, the makers of Breakdown use old-fashioned ingenuity -- plus a compelling star, a fast- paced mystery and a deadpan villain -- to come up with a sizzler.

The New York Times -
His Breakdown is a tough, vigorous exercise in pure action, shot with throwback expertise and, most refreshingly, without special effects.

The A.V. Club -
Breakdown is just a skillfully constructed, smartly conceived, escapist thriller that does just about everything right.

Chicago Sun-Times -
Breakdown is a fine thriller, and its ending is unworthy of it.

Washington Post -
Jonathon Mostow, who wrote the script and then directed the movie, travels mostly familiar backroads and crosses bridges when he comes to them, actually managing a pretty good cliff-hanging denouement on the latter.
