Part of the fun here is anticipating the Rube Goldberg-style machinations by which Death catches up with its targets.
Richard Harrington, Washington Post
Rotten
That there is an audience for a movie in which innocent people suffer hideous accidental deaths is troubling enough, but that a group of creative people chose to direct their energies on this repulsive spectacle simply provokes disgust.
Claudia Puig, USA Today
Rotten
The filmmakers clearly set out to make a film that featured lots of footage of really disgusting annihilations, then threw together a haphazard script and hired a few hot actors to play the corpses.
Daphne Gordon, Toronto Star
Rotten
It's sick, stupid stuff, and intentionally so.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
