Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Chain Reaction isn't dull -- the film is paced to keep audiences attentive -- but the lack of originality dampens its enjoyability.
– James Berardinelli,

fresh:
[Chain Reaction] has better acting, better writing, more spectacular chase sequences and more genuine drama than all of this summer's blockbusters.
– Edward Guthmann,
San Francisco Chronicle,

It's not a bad film in individual moments and in the energy of itsperformances, but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
1 Jan 2000
rotten:
The movie is so uninvolving that it inspires renewed respect for Broken Arrow, which was equally stupid but excitingly filmed.
– Mike Clark,
