Rotten
Director Kenneth Branagh has mercifully pared the action down to 88 minutes (the first movie dragged on for 138), but the final act... still seems to go on forever.
J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader

Kenneth Branagh's direction, its self-consciously skewed angles and surveillance-cam cutaways highlighting his weakness for the misplaced flourish, is more of a hindrance than a help.
Trevor Johnston, Time Out
Rotten
Director Kenneth Branagh clearly is having fun navigating Tim Harvey's slick set design, but eventually the characters' deadly competitiveness becomes tedious.

Rotten
It doesnt work, and the reasons why are no mystery, no mystery at all.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

This film wants only to entertain, and other talents have gathered with Pinter to help.
