Slashfilm
Thirteen Lives is a film that truly orients itself around a grounded cinematic approach to story, one largely told without big, grandstanding emotional speeches but instead focused on visually capturing subjectivity, demonstrating tension, and highlighting the life-or-death weight of the characters' choices.utm_campaign=clip - 80
The Telegraph
Howard’s film is a paean to the courage and canniness of the seasoned non-professional: subterranean heroism has never looked so down-to-earth. - 75
Consequence
The film is a welcome return to form for Howard, containing all the makings of a competently crafted crowd-pleasing drama. - 72
TheWrap
Although it’s extremely competent, it fails to add a new perspective to the story, or a distinctive approach to its telling. - 62
The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
When Howard focuses on the head-scratching mechanics of the mission itself, Thirteen Lives excels – and its many claustrophobic underwater scenes likely play excellently inside the confines of a darkened theatre. But by the time we’re in pure rescue mode, it is almost too late. What should be the highest of high-stakes dramas arrives with a drippy thud. - 60
The Guardian
[A] decent retelling of an amazing true-life story. - 60
Time Out
You can appreciate the effort, but this falls just short of doing justice to the emotional stakes and claustrophobic terror of the traumatic events themselves. - 60
Empire
For its first half, Thirteen Lives feels like it is treading water, waiting for its big final act. Thankfully, the second half is a riveting depiction of a daring, foolhardy, inspired rescue.
