Leave your thoughts about New Town Killers.
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterEnergetic direction and a promising central performance counteract the modest budget and some less-than-convincing plot elements. |
| Observer (UK)Jason SolomonsA series of illogical twists derails a chase movie that ends in the unfortunate metaphor of an empty box. |
| Little White LiesNikki BaughanSocial commentary with a video game mentality. Intriguing, if not entirely successful. |
| Total FilmMatt GlasbyRacing from lawless tenement to loveless townhouse, it's grittier and gutsier than the cut-price Running Man clone it threatens to become, a spiky little speedball of caustic social commentary and guerrilla thrills. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerA watchable and well acted, if frequently ridiculous thriller. |
| ScotsmanAlistair HarknessThis is more ambitious than the majority of dreary low-budget Brit flicks. |
| Sunday Times (UK)Cosmo LandesmanThe film has great visual flair, but the story is a heavy-handed slice of modern melodrama that would have made Dickens blush. |
| Sky CinemaRob DanielCaught between wanting to make a bold statement and deliver edge of the seat thrills, New Town Killers is a curious mix. |
| GuardianCatherine ShoardGiven that it's basically one big chase, there's something awfully snoozy about this latest from Richard Jobson - a sort of cut-price, Scottish-set Hostel (a mountain bothy, maybe?). |
| Times (UK)Wendy IdeThe look of the film is unpolished and several of the supporting performances are poor. |
