Leave your thoughts about Tracers.
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfLautner's here to move at top speed, leap over walls, and make pained faces when the going gets tough for Cam. Anything more than that is beyond his skill level. |
| AV ClubJesse HassengerTracers, then, is unavoidably a movie about Taylor Lautner joining a parkour gang, and often exactly as silly as that sounds. But it’s also a major improvement over Lautner’s last action-thriller, "Abduction," which had little action, few thrills, and zero abductions. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenAs long as it shuts up and keeps moving, Tracers makes for a sufficiently diverting, not to mention zero-emission, vehicle. |
| Movie TalkJason BestThe plot is strictly routine, and so is the script, but the scenes in which the gang members dash and leap, tumble and spring across the city's rooftops give the film a giddy rush of adrenaline. |
| NOW TorontoNorman WilnerIt ignores the basic requirements of cinema - narrative, tension, emotion - to pile on more scenes of attractive, fit people doing dynamic, envelope-pushing things. |
| TheWrapJames RocchiThe action is shot far better than it is in most Marvel movies, with clarity in the framing and a fluid skill to the cutting. |
| VarietyPeter DebrugeWhile Lautner is to be admired for his physical commitment to the role, the below-the-line team lighting, shooting and choreographing his moves deserves equal credit. The film wouldn’t have worked without such a versatile team, which otherwise operates without a trace. |
| National PostChris KnightTracers gets a few things right and completely forgets about others. |
| Globe and MailBrad WheelerWith escape as its theme, this thin-plotted pleaser comes hard and goes fast, its rush premium but fleeting. |
| Slant MagazineEd GonzalezThe lusterless camerawork keys itself almost empathetically to the drab reality of the film's spaces, settled and unsettled alike, but it can't enliven the hackneyed plot. |
