| StarburstRich CrossLittle effort is made to evoke the seriousness of humanity's predicament, the farm skills of the drones are left sketchy, and in the end, the menace posed by the story's villains does not make much logical sense. |
| Village VoiceSimon AbramsHover may sometimes be unbelievably generic, but Osterman, adapting Coleman’s clever scenario, nails a universal power dynamic. |
| Hollywood ReporterJustin LoweColeman's rush to condemn corporations' profit motive seems too simplistic and skimps on the details of social disintegration that the global agricultural crisis must necessarily provoke. |
| RogerEbert.comGlenn KennyAll of these nuances, as well as whatever satirical social commentary the movie wanted to make, are lost in the climax, a press conference staged with a threadbare quality that’s sadly typical of too much original Syfy fare. |
| The New York TimesBen KenigsbergHover is reasonably resourceful for its first hour, during which it appears to have turned budget restrictions into an asset, keeping the focus on ideas instead of effects. The last act, though, is a total whiff — too rushed, too riddled with plot holes and too incongruously hopeful to take seriously. |
| Los Angeles TimesGEOFF BERKSHIREBy the time the film reaches a third act low on logic and heavy on exploding heads, it's clear that "Hover" never had the right parts to take flight. |
| User ReviewForsythe JDug it. Pretty insane third act but it works in the way that Starship Troopers works. |
