What are critics saying?

83

The Film Stage by Jared Mobarak

All mood, atmosphere, and mystery with our own confusion about the action mirrored in those onscreen.

58

The Playlist by Bradley Warren

If the film’s climax comes off as thematically clear — an outgrowth of the tension heretofore developed — it otherwise leaves an aftertaste of slightness.

50

We Got This Covered by Matt Donato

Tank 432 does right in building battlefield tension without any gunfire or attacks, but misses its mark in neatly wrapping up yet another paranoid psychological thriller.

40

The Hollywood Reporter by Frank Scheck

As lumbering and slow-moving as the vehicle in which most of its action takes place, Nick Gillespie’s horror thriller makes the familiar mistake of confusing obscurity with tension.

40

Village Voice by Chuck Wilson

A last-minute flurry of action and a final plot twist aren't enough to redeem this busy but tedious thriller.

40

The New York Times by Ben Kenigsberg

This British thriller is a high-concept tease that slogs its way through a morass of barely differentiated characters and visuals before reaching an unsatisfying conclusion.

40

Los Angeles Times by Noel Murray

A few memorable shots don’t offer enough justification to watch a film that’s not scary, rarely exciting and never as engrossing a puzzle as it means to be.
