Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Shuttle is a grim and twisted exercise in high-stress terror that falls just short of the torture-porn subgenre.
– Ted Fry,

fresh:
Shuttle mostly exists, in the words of Alfred Hitchcock, to 'put the audience through it,' but it leaves you in a very different place than where it started and with remarkable economy of effort.
– Ty Burr,

rotten:
There is no release for the audience, no 'entertainment,' not even much action excitement. Just a remorseless march into the dark.
– Roger Ebert,

rotten:
When the payoff finally arrives, it seems tasteless not just because of its topicality, but because the shock feels unearned.

fresh:
The film is an efficiently engineered mechanism for creating suspense.
