Someone had to work extra hard to make a movie this bad with two likeable leads like Mr. Owen and Ms. Aniston. I can't figure out why.
Andrew Sarris, New York Observer

It has a great look, a couple of genuinely terrifying turns and a surprise or two that I didn't see coming. This is a flawed but stylish and entertaining thriller.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
Rotten
[Derailed has] a ludicrous script whose twists and turns are laughably obvious or just plain laughable.
Ruthe Stein, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten
As long as Clive Owen is on his own, solving problems and planning revenge, Derailed is a reasonably gripping thriller.
John Hartl, Seattle Times
