Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Despite its contrivances, Reservation Road is moving at times, and that's largely due to the skill of its cast.

fresh:
It starts with devastation and closes, after a few reels of narrative dithering, with a climax of hairpin emotional turns and indisputable power.
– Amy Biancolli,
Houston Chronicle,
26 Oct 2007
rotten:
A film of distinguished performances that rise above a coincidence-riddled and perfunctory screenplay -- without redeeming it.
– Carrie Rickey,
Philadelphia Inquirer,

rotten:
Reservation Road is a car wreck of a movie about an auto accident. It's designed as a psychological suspense film, but every character development and plot twist can be seen far in advance. It's a mystery with no guessing.
– Colin Covert,

rotten:
An exercise in frustration and wasted opportunities.
