Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Bigelow is so enamored of high-tech thrills, and so mesmerized by the violence she seeks to condemn, that her efforts at 11th-hour moralizing seem limp and halfhearted.

rotten:
Though the creators of Strange Days may well be interested in its dramatic and thematic elements, they do not have the same touch for these moments as they do for camera pyrotechnics.

Undeniably thrilling and troubling.
– Peter Travers,

rotten:
Once the premise has lost its promise, and Fiennes's brave attempts at characterization are sacrificed to pseudo-dazzle, everything appears awfully humdrum and, yes, distinctly dated.

fresh:
Director Kathryn Bigelow comes closer than any other filmmaker to turning movies into a virtual reality trip.
