Leave your thoughts about Cub.
| ScreenAnarchyJason GorberIf it was just tripe it'd be easy to simply forget this film, but Cub is even more frustrating as it seems that it really could have been something special. In the end we're left with a simple, spooky campfire story that quickly fizzles out. |
| Sight and SoundAnton Bitelforest-bound fight-and-flight is hardly original - but seeing these formative games play out among such young characters makes for some uncompromising and confronting viewing indeed. |
| FILMINK (Australia)John NoonanSimilar in tone to Let The Right One In, it starts slowly and builds into a fantastical and creepy look at childhood. |
| The PlaylistKevin JagernauthPerhaps "Cub" would have worked as a 30-minute episode on TV, but as far as theatrical features go, "Cub" is a puppy with no bite. |
| Film InquiryAlex LinesCub ends up being a predictable dull mess which simply recreates past films that the director has seen, without any sense of originality or fun. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawIt gets lost a bit. A creepy excursion, though. |
| Sky CinemaElliott NobleCub will keep gorehounds happy, but its cruel dismissal of youth makes it disturbing in more ways than it should be. |
| The ListNikki BaughanThe story trips over itself at every turn. |
| Observer (UK)Jonathan RomneyThe build-up is entertainingly eccentric, and there's some ingenious booby-trappery at work among the pines, but Cub runs dry once it knuckles down to the routine bloodletting. |
| TheHorrorShowScott WeinbergFeels a bit like 15 slasher movies you've already seen, but also ends up being a rather novel, unpredictable, and insane little horror flick. |
