Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It's easy to understand why Herzog was driven to tell this story twice.
– Rene Rodriguez,
Miami Herald,
27 Jul 2007
fresh:
Although the film delivers the expected action and efficiently jacks up the suspense, longtime devotees of the director will undoubtedly miss the visionary qualities that have long distinguished his work.
– Cliff Froehlich,
St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
28 Jul 2007
fresh:
Herzog builds this movie around another strong, eccentric performance from Bale, who is gaining a reputation for outsized talent and for downsized physicality.
– Jonathan F. Richards,

fresh:
But just as exciting -- maybe even more so, for those who love the medium and, especially, the uplift of the great-escape genre -- Rescue Dawn is a triumphant Werner Herzog movie.
– Lisa Schwarzbaum,

Rescue Dawn may not feel much like a Herzog movie, but it's a gripping real-life thriller.
