Critic Reviews
-
Ben Mankiewicz, At the Movies
It is dark, depressing and seems to be built entirely around a twist ending that feels less like a surprise and more like relief.
-
Ben Lyons, At the Movies
Even though Anne Hathaway is good, it's no reason to get really emotionally invested in her quest
-
Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News
Did Hathaway know when she signed to this that it would be released just in time to embarrass her during her accolades for Rachel Getting Married?
-
Stephen Holden, New York Times
Passengers is a supernatural thriller so mechanically inept and lacking in suspense that it doesn't even pass muster as lowbrow Halloween-ready entertainment.
-
Joshua Katzman, Chicago Reader
The surprise ending isn't as shocking as those of Jacob's Ladder or The Sixth Sense -- two stellar examples of the genre -- but it's still dramatically potent.
