This is a cookie-cutter buddy movie, as predictable as they come.

As an unintentional send-up of the predictability and wretchedness of modern action-comedies, Chill Factor is hilarious. Sadly, however, no one involved seems to realize the silliness and transgressive stupidity of its sub-direct-to-video-thriller script.
Nathan Rabin, AV Club

Nobody questions this logic, but then there are a lot of logical gaps in this movie.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Rotten
The stunt work is pretty good, the brain work close to nonexistent.
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Fresh
The atmosphere is winning, with the odd felicity peppering the journey with gags and groans.
Wally Hammond, Time Out
