“..with the climactic battle filmed so poorly it's difficult to tell what's going on..”
by Randy Cordova [Arizona Republic]
“..Tyler Perry can't elevate this lackluster thriller..”
by Todd McCarthy [Hollywood Reporter]
“..the director acquits himself on the action front, but makes the simple procedural elements feel wooden and melodramatic, particularly in sappy home-life scenes..”
by Peter Debruge [Variety]
“..it's worse than mediocre..”
by Mick LaSalle [San Francisco Chronicle]

“..with nary an animated tap dance in sight, it's still king of the 3D penguins..”
by Paul Bradshaw [Total Film]

RING OF FIRE :

by Brian Lowry [Variety]

BEFORE MIDNIGHT :

“..Before Midnight is bittersweet, intelligently written, deftly acted and painfully honest..”
