The Marine often feels like an oddball black comedy about a dysfunctional band of sociopaths, just masquerading as an action movie about one tough ex-Marine.
Scott Tobias, AV Club
Rotten
A delectably bad '80s-style actioner.
Gregory Kirschling, Entertainment Weekly

A happy surprise.
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News

It's not a good film by any practical standard, but The Marine is bad in just the right way, a mindless throwaway that's at least smart enough not to take itself too seriously.
Mark Olsen, Los Angeles Times
