| Movie ChambersPaul ChambersFound footage films are the bane of my existence. They reward lazy filmmakers and punish eternally optimistic movie audiences. |
| The Young FolksJose CordovaThe Pyramid isn't outright terrible, but it is hopelessly and hilariously confused. |
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyIf you're looking for cheap scares and have 90 minutes to kill, you could do worse than The Pyramid. But not a lot worse. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfLevasseur stops to linger on banal disaster, making The Pyramid not only idiotic, but a cruel test of patience. |
| Mania.comRob VauxAh, found footage: my old nemesis. We meet again. |
| TheWrapAlonso DuraldeThe paucity of new ideas is evident from the opening crawl. |
| Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)John BeifussDespite its 'found footage' presentation, this is an amusingly unpretentious genre exercise, more akin to the old-school monster movies, mummy's-curse chillers and gory body-count shockers of decades past than to the shaky-camera thrillers of today. |

| ScreenRantKofi OutlawThe Pyramid overcomes thin writing and an inconsistent found-footage format to deliver a horror movie experience that actually fulfills its promises. |
