San Francisco Chronicle
It's scary. It's well-acted. It's filmed with a degree of flash and elegance. - 60
Los Angeles Times
A moderately diverting thriller that builds suspense and entertains effectively... strongest selling point is Charlize Theron. - 50
New York Post
Could have been written by a computer programmed to cannibalize previous sci-fi films. - 50
The New York Times
Depp moves through the film suavely and imperturbably, never letting the particulars bog him down. - 50
Salon
Far from unwatchable. It's not a good movie but at least, on its own schlocky terms, the story makes sense (which is a lot more than you can say for "The Sixth Sense"). - 50
Variety
Aggressively stylish but dramatically flaccid. - 30
Austin Chronicle
The finished product is as predictably dull as a newborn's soft spot. - 30
Film.com
Langorous and oddly detached... a mess.
