Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas
Leviathan is Alien under water. It's not nearly as sophisticated or as terrifying as the Ridley Scott film, but it looks good and moves fast. It's elementary fun with a couple of scary moments along the way.
60
Empire - Kim Newman
A safe, effectively jumpy transfer of Alien to the depths that restores the fear of Jaws into an environment momentarily softened by The Abyss.
50
The New York Times - Janet Maslin
Leviathan compares favorably with the other recent aquatic horror film Deepstar Six but probably not with anything else.
50
Slant Magazine - Chuck Bowen
A mediocre, quasi-diverting B movie.

Washington Post - Unnamed
Because Cosmatos has put together a decent cast and a proficient crew, Leviathan is intermittently interesting, but it's a bad sign that the movie starts losing its punch when the monster shows up.
