Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle -
It's scary. It's well-acted. It's filmed with a degree of flash and elegance.
|
|
Los Angeles Times -
A moderately diverting thriller that builds suspense and entertains effectively... strongest selling point is Charlize Theron.
|
|
New York Post -
Could have been written by a computer programmed to cannibalize previous sci-fi films.
|
|
The New York Times -
Depp moves through the film suavely and imperturbably, never letting the particulars bog him down.
|
|
Salon -
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").
