Brad Anderson's supernatural thriller is stacked to keep us guessing. Initially, this makes it watchably atmospheric. But the inconclusive hints lead to the sense that he's withholding too much.
Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post

Anderson spends most of his energy creating a mood - making "Vanishing" more cerebral than white-knuckle, though a few more shrieks (mine) might have been nice.
Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times

This is The Twilight Zone as written by Jean Paul Sartre. What audacity! What vision! And, alas, what a failure.
Tirdad Derakhshani, Philadelphia Inquirer
Fresh
Anderson does a lot with very little - a wavering light, a patch of darkness - and Jaswinski's script tries to break up the stage-bound monotony with a few well-timed (if not particularly informative) flashbacks.
Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
