ReelViews
Siberia is effectively well-paced, offers instances of tension, and doesn’t cheat at the end. - 58
The Film Stage
The reason to see Siberia is, quite simply, the presence of Keanu Reeves. - 42
IndieWire
The result is a dull and deeply compromised movie that would rather be a mediocre crime saga than a nuanced character study, but can’t quite bring itself to commit to that choice. - 40
Los Angeles Times
Despite its pro-forma nature, the setup for Siberia — a lone hero in over his head in an unfamiliar world — actually starts out well but refuses to play out in satisfying ways. - 38
Movie Nation
Siberia slogs along like the failed pilot for a poorly-thought out cable series, one with Eastern European development incentives but without enough drama, incident, intrigue or plot to justify its running time. - 30
Film Journal International
Director Matthew Ross does the near-impossible in Siberia: He turns a Keanu Reeves vehicle about sex, diamonds and the Russian mob into a dreary, endless slog. - 30
Village Voice
This movie so badly wants to be a sexy thriller, but it is neither sexy nor thrilling. - 30
