Chicago Reader
Rosenthal observes all the ritual elements -- a veteran of the series, he seems to understand that its fans crave certainty over shock. - 40
New Times (L.A.)
Thing is, movie's 100 percent mystery-free, but mildly creative, mixing Psych 101 with cynical Hollywood in-jokes with Tylenol-sponsored grainy-cam footage. Best revelation is source of Myers' superhuman strength: eats big rats, apparently. - 30
L.A. Weekly
If, as it appears, Rosenthal is competing with the knife-wielding Myers for the title of biggest hack, he wins by unanimous decision. - 30
The A.V. Club
It seems content to plod listlessly through the motions. - 25
ReelViews
There's no evidence of craftsmanship or energy. Everything, from the plot to the execution, is plodding and obligatory. - 25
San Francisco Chronicle
Cheesy. - 20
The New York Times
Spectators will indeed sit open-mouthed before the screen, not screaming but yawning. - 10
Variety
More uselessly redundant and shamelessly money-grubbing than most third-rate horror sequels.
