It's a scrappy, unpretentious movie, with nicely calibrated pacing, but there's no logic, little motivation and above all, no personalities.

Farran Smith Nehme, New York Post

It may be time for everyone to agree that if you've seen one trapped-in-space-with-an-alien-presence movie, you've seen them all.

Neil Genzlinger, New York Times

Sometimes an earnest, easily forgettable B-movie is just what you're looking for. But rarely do you feel like spending 12 bucks to see it - especially when that appears also to be the film's entire budget.

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Rotten

"Stranded" stops at being merely seriously dull and trite, rather than tipping into train-wreck silliness.

Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times

Slater is supposed to be incredulous about the existence of the alien threat, but he mostly seems incredulous about the script.
