The Dissolve
The film’s appeal is largely dependent on Cage; Left Behind is a batshit-crazy Cage cult classic of a radically new stripe. - 38
McClatchy-Tribune News Service
It’s inoffensive, unless you take umbrage at the idea that the only people who know not to steal are True Believers and all that keeps society from an instant meltdown are the Faithful. - 35
TheWrap
Has all the subtlety of a sledgehammer and production values that verge on parody. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
The Rapture won’t come soon enough for the unfortunate souls forced to suffer through Left Behind. - 25
San Francisco Chronicle
That lack of concern for the way people actually interact renders the film useless as entertainment, or as a conversion tool. - 16
The A.V. Club
This Left Behind may be worse than the last Left Behind, but it’s much less boring, thanks in part to the commitment of its star, who plays the often ludicrous material with the straightest of faces. The Cage works in mysterious ways. - 10
Variety
With a “Sharknado”-inspired visual style and a deeply weary lead performance from Nicolas Cage, Left Behind is cheap-looking, overwrought kitsch of the most unintentionally hilarious order. - 0
New York Daily News
This failed epic — really, an epic failure — would barely be noticed, were it not for former Oscar-winner Nicolas Cage taking on a “Sharknado”-quality remake of a Kirk Cameron movie.
