Critic Reviews

, This is London
No one could call this a notable film, though there is some good location work and a performance from a bearded Dyer that may be a bit over the top but still makes its mark.
-
Mark Adams, Daily Mirror [UK]
Thoughtfully chilling and impressively performed, Deviation is a well-sustained thriller.
-
Alex Zane, Sun Online
Should be an edge-of-the-seat thrill ride, but amounts to an unintentionally funny B movie, with Dyer mugging to camera and Walton simpering next to him.
-
Christopher Tookey, Daily Mail [UK]
This can only be recommended to connoisseurs of terrible acting.
-
Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK]
Bizarrely and excruciatingly acted by Dyer a lot of the time, but actually this film isn't as bad as all that - there is some interesting and atmospheric location work as the pair travel through the bleak urban wilderness.
