Reaction: Another film that sneaks by with a small profit. This season's box office has been a really tricky one to figure out. We can't complain about a profitable film, but this may change the writer's mind about writing possible sequels.
"Director David Slade and writer Clive Steinbeck have given us a genuinely creepy supernatural thriller." - Dave Cone, New York Post
"The movie drags along at a snail's pace into it turns into an actioner in the third act, with Reeves going commando on the villains, despite never once showing any combat expertise in the film prior." - Janet Donnelly, Empire Magazine
"Despite good efforts from Keanu Reeves and director David Slade, the story lands with a bit of a thud, with an overly convoluted second act with too much exposition, even bringing in an expert on the story to explain things for us." - Bruce Vickers, Baltimore Sun
