The tale is skimpy, mostly set in a New York City suite that, despite its bustling midtown location, is said to host unspeakable evil-and it doesn't even have Wi-Fi.

It reminds us what it's like to be scared in a theater rather than overwhelmed by buckets of blood and gore.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews

The movie attempts a false ending that doesn't quite work; the picture feels prolonged, dragged out, and its ennui lessens the impact of some of its more terrifying fillips.

A faithful and creepy adaptation of [King's] 2002 short story.
Scott Bowles, USA Today

Even as haunted hotel King movies go, 1408 is certainly no Shining. Not even the TV-movie version.
