Movie Reviews

Detroit Free Press - 10/10 by Terry LawsonThe most exciting [two hours] I've spent on any would-be summer blockbuster in a long, long time.
Montreal Film Journal - 10/10 by Kevin N. LaforestIt's a great movie. And I'm not only saying this because I'm in it!
San Diego Union-Tribune - 9/10 by David ElliottYou can fire a torpedo through some of Clancy's holes, and the scripters don't deserve any Oscars. But the nerve-raked acting, the crackle of lines, the impressive stagings of hardware, make for some robust and scary entertainment.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel - 9/10 by Duane DudekHas so little suspense or drama that it manages to make World War III into a PG-13-rated event.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertDirector Phil Alden Robinson and his writers, Paul Attanasio and Daniel Pyne, do a spellbinding job of cranking up the tension, they create a portrait of convincing realism, and then they add the other stuff because, well, if anybody ever makes a movie like this without the obligatory Hollywood softeners, audiences might flee the theater in despair.
Planet Sick-Boy - 9/10 by Jon PopickA shockingly brutal and incredibly realistic look at a devastating terrorist act committed on U.S. soil.
www.susangranger.com - 9/10 by Susan GrangerThere's no question that this is a well-made movie, but are you psychologically prepared to see a shocking depiction of what you're worried about in real life?
Hollywood Report Card - 9/10 by Ross AnthonyArtfully shot, well scripted, with tremendous direction.
eFilmCritic.com - 9/10 by Erik ChildressDirector Phil Alden Robinson is able to set-up the film's second half with enough precision to shock us, frighten us and have us gripping the theater's armrests.
Jam! Movies - 9/10 by Bruce KirklandThe Sum Of All Fears does have a lot going for it, not least of which is an absolutely horrifying plot twist.
