Where previously we felt as trapped in Polanski's apartments as his characters, in Carnage we only ever peek in through the window.
Ian Buckwalter, The Atlantic
Rotten
The actors seem to have fun, particularly Foster, working against type as the thoroughly unlikable Penelope. But "Carnage" isn't nearly as bloody as it thinks it is.
Tom Long, Detroit News
Rotten
What are supposed to be transgressive observations about the holy state of parenthood and matrimony instead come across as self-satisfied and shallow as the pieties Reza intends to puncture.
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post

If we grant that "Carnage" is a low-impact exercise in stripping away the social veneer, it's nonetheless brisk and enjoyable.
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
