| Worcester Telegram & GazetteDaniel M. KimmelLogic flies out the window, even given the fantastic elements, and the initially interesting characters are soon reduced to cardboard cutouts. |
| Supercala.comJohn VenableIt's challenging, convoluted, incredibly creative, and pure fantasy. It's also pretty darn entertaining. |
| FromTheBalconyBill ClarkThose looking for a stomach-turning alien film may be pleased, but those looking for a smarter psychological thriller will be sorely disappointed. |
| Bangor Daily News (Maine)Christopher SmithA movie nobody will mistake as one of King's better adaptations. |
