If the story behind this chilling internet creation could have matched the quality of those aforementioned strong points, Sony would have a real horror gem on their hands. - 42
The A.V. Club
In a movie this flat-out dull, even a tasteful lack of direct exploitation feels like a failure of nerve. - 40
Time Out
Give this literally and figuratively bloodless spooker a pass. - 40
Arizona Republic
The movie is a big disappointment, because ultimately Slender Man does not get the full-on creep-out treatment such an intriguing character deserves. Here he's just a generic horror bad guy, doing standard horror-bad-guy things. He could be anything, really, and therefore winds up, like the movie, being not much. - 38
Chicago Tribune
Birke's script is plainly straightforward, a simple supernatural chase story. It doesn't plumb the depths of what might make Slender Man scary, so Slender Man isn't scary at all. - 38
Movie Nation
Give White credit for the picture’s fairly eerie tone and look — darkened streets, foggy forests of spindly pines, shadows and more shadows. It’s just not worth more than the occasional hair-raising instant. - 38

Sporadically, one can see the movie that Slender Man could have been, but it disappears like the title character’s victims. - 30
Variety
Slender Man is the kind of movie in which images come before logic, because there really isn’t much logic. There’s just a movie out to goose you.
