Reaction: Not exactly the numbers we were hoping for given the cast lined up for this film. It's not a colossal flop, but we were expecting the starring duo of Ferguson and Jackman to be more of a box office draw than they ended up being.

"The film doesn't always make sense and can be difficult to follow at times, but the film moves with a certain intensity and rythym that makes it all watchable - definitely more watchable than it would be in less sure hands." - Mark Rawls, Seattle Times

"Rebecca Ferguson shows that she does indeed have the chops to make it as a leading lady in Hollywood, but the film falls apart with Hugh Jackman's co-starring performance. He simply isn't believable as the cold, calculated Wolf. Couple that with the fairly generic story, and the film can struggle to hold on to the audience's attention at times." - Justin Rodriguez, Detroit Free Press

"When Lady Red works, it really works. There are several nail-bitingly intense moments/scenes in the film, that are colorfully brought to life by the talented cast and the confident direction of John Hillcoat." - Adam Carpenter, St. Louis Post-Disbatch

Rated R for strong bloody violence, language and sexuality/nudity.
