Reaction: The highest grossing Halo film yet, and now the 5th highest grossing film for the studio (and officially the highest grossing film not part of the Splinter Cell or Booster Gold series). With the series' future uncertain after the next couple films, it's certainly nice to make such profits while we can.
"The main films of the Halo series are the rare case of a series getting better as it goes along. The spectacle on display is grand and full of colorful characters, man and alien alike." - Clark Davis, JoBlo.com
"The Halo series is simply an example of top-notch blockbuster filmmaking, but this entry brings more humanity to the series than ever before. The Master Chief has never felt so much like a real person, and his relationship with the AI Cortana is surprisingly emotional." - Clark Haverford, Nerdist
"While the franchise has tried to make the villains more three-dimensional, we are still once again left with a film with a big animated alien villain set to destroy humanity simply for the sake of destroying humanity." - Ken Decker, Denver Post
