Reaction: While a solid success is nice, at this point the studio needs huge hits to salvage the season's box office. The film however does continue writer Roy Horne's impressive streak of profitable films.
"Jessica Chastain delivers an intense and committed lead performance as the title character in this action film full of brutal action and a surprising amount of humor." - Shawn Moseby, Fresno Bee
"Painkiller Jane is a film that had a ton of potential, but it just didn't commit to its concept nearly enough. Here you have a film about a cop who can heal her own wounds, but it just isn't explored enough with its slim plot." - Jeremy Raren, RottenTomatoes.com
"The film is just a fun, all-around good time at the box office. The cast seem to be having a blast with the material, be it fight scenes, gun battles or funny banter. While Jessica Chastain is amazing in the title role, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Jason Mantzoukas' memorable performance as Jane's loyal partner." - Chris Mears, Slashfilm
