San Francisco Chronicle - Mick LaSalle
It's scary. It's well-acted. It's filmed with a degree of flash and elegance.

Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas
A moderately diverting thriller that builds suspense and entertains effectively... strongest selling point is Charlize Theron.

New York Post - Jonathan Foreman
Could have been written by a computer programmed to cannibalize previous sci-fi films.

The New York Times - Elvis Mitchell
Depp moves through the film suavely and imperturbably, never letting the particulars bog him down.

Salon - Charles Taylor
Far from unwatchable. It's not a good movie but at least, on its own schlocky terms, the story makes sense (which is a lot more than you can say for "The Sixth Sense").
