Movie Reviews

  • we never really care about the characters, their plight, or the order in which they'll become tender vittles
    2 of 5 by Jim Judy [Screen It! ]
  • too many people do too many ridiculous things for this movie to pack nearly the punch of "Paranormal Activity"
    2 of 5 by Bill Goodykoontz [Arizona Republic ]
  • there are moments within the flick that are truly scary as hell, but many have been hampered by the flick's numerous trailers and TV spots
    3.5 of 5 by Uncle Creepy [Dread Central ]
  • the film is highly convincing in its verisimilitude
    by Frank Scheck [Hollywood Reporter ]
  • the film ends on a far-fetched, far from frightening note
    Review rate : C- by William Goss [Film.com ]
  • the acting is what you’d expect-on the level of what you’ll find in any crummy horror movie shown on the SyFy network
    by Frank Swietek [One Guy's Opinion ]
  • not everything is answered at the end of "Chernobyl Diaries," and that's precisely as it should be
    by Dustin Putman [http://dustinputman.com/reviews/c/12_chernobyldiaries.htm ]
  • final scenes shamelessly recycle cliches and contrivances from a dozen or so other sci-fi thrillers involving contamination and coverups
    by Joe Leydon [Variety ]
  • director Bradley Parker competently builds tension of the usual silence-silence-silence-SOMETHING-LOUD variety
    0.5 of 4 by Matt Pais [RedEye ]
  • characters who do nonsensical things, jump scares, etc. - and the absolutely horrendous ending easier to forgive
    3 of 5 by Brian Tallerico [HollywoodChicago.com ]
  • avoid a boredom meltdown and give this formulaic scarefest a wide berth
    1.5 of 4 by Claudia Puig [USA Today ]
  • afflicted with a fatal flaw that damages many horror films: after a better-than-average setup and a promising first half, everything falls apart
    2 of 4 by James Berardinelli [ReelViews ]
