Leave your thoughts about Two-Minute Warning.
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasAn off-the-beaten-track story [based on the novel by George La Fountaine] of a football stadium crowd menaced by a sniper, combined with above-average plotting, acting and direction. |
| Time OutChris PetitEfficient enough as formula suspense, but it fails to confront the implications of its subject, preferring instead evasiveness and fast cynicism to pull it through. |
| NewsweekJanet MaslinEfficient enough as formula suspense, but it fails to confront the implications of its subject, preferring instead evasiveness and fast cynicism to pull it through. |
| TIME MagazineJay CocksMost of these matters cancel each other out, but there is just enough energy remaining to make Two-Minute Warning an amusing time waster. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertIt's a cheerfully unashamed exploitation of two of our great national preoccupations, pro football and guns. |
| The New York TimesRichard EderThe movie is a blank, in other words, until the end. And then, suddenly, a lot of people are killed very gorily; and there is a mass stampede, and the football crowd becomes a panicked, murderous mob. And even the panic lacks emotion. It has momentum—lots of feet stepping on faces—and viciousness. Nothing more. |

| User ReviewCsaba Tboring as hell, but all in all an unforgettable experience |
| User ReviewJohn TOne of my favourite films growing up. The shear panic caused by one crazed marksman is tangible. Don't think they could remake this as it would be either utter pants or have a bunch of do-gooders saying its "controversial subject matter". |
