Reaction: We managed a tiny profit on this film. For as popular as Margot Robbie is, this film was really one of the first big tests to see if a film can be marketed around her star power. The results were alright, but we were hoping for a bigger profit on this one.
"Adr1ft works based on the strength of Margot Robbie's lead performance. The plot wasn't super interesting, but she kept me involved enough to make it all work." - Adam Carpenter, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
"The film is set up as a sci-fi mystery. Unfortunately, the pay-off to the mystery is a big let down. It was an infuriating ending that made the main character and the plot itself unlikable." - Stan Kyle, Omaha World-Herald
"Adr1ft is a difficult movie. It's anchored by a strong performance from Margot Robbie, along with some strong supporting actors, but the story itself is frustrating. There's enough that works to recommend viewing, but don't be surprised if you leave the theater pulling you hair as it won't be for everyone." - Roger Taggart, Chicago Tribune
