The goal seems to have been to create a multilayered thriller, but the senseless, verbose and convoluted saga never generates simple suspense, let alone tension.

Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
Rotten

The presence in the ensemble of Orlando Bloom, who also serves as a producer, could be an initial enticement, but his performance is one of the weakest in a mixed bag.

Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter
Rotten

Bloom is the giant void at the center of the film, and his laughable histrionics pull Haven firmly into camp territory.

Nathan Rabin, AV Club
Rotten

An ineffective experiment about ugly things happening in a beautiful place.

Ted Fry, Seattle Times
Rotten

It's a muddled, disjointed and fairly undramatic film.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
