Reaction: Very solid numbers for this reboot of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer franchise. The PG-13 rating on this one definitely helped the target audience of the film (teenagers) see it in the theaters.
"While this Buffy the Vampire Slayer probably won't appeal much to veteran fans of the television series, it should work well with the teen demo it appears to be targeting with its goofy charm and hip young cast." - Chris Mears, Slashfilm
"The stakes (no pun intended) seem incredibly low in this film and the title character's journey feels completely telegraphed in. For a comedy it doesn't feel funny enough, and for a horror film it doesn't feel scary enough." - Stephen Bonds, San Francisco Chronicle
"This Buffy reboot has a fun tone and energy to it thanks to the script by Walter McKnight. Definitely not a household name, but Meg Donnelly makes a strong impact in the leading role, making a case for herself as a name to watch in the future." - Perry Manson, CinemaBlend.com
