The Canyon Reviews
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The Canyon is so singularly inept it gives you a whole new appreciation for the ept.
Dallas Morning News
Cary Darling
The Canyon is undermined by the expectation of a big payoff that never comes.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
If well-meaning people didn't make stupid choices -- and if cellphones worked everywhere -- way fewer vacation-from-hell thrillers would probably be made.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
The best thing about this would-be nature thriller is Will Patton's zesty performance as a cackling, crazed muleskinner, a wily old hand who exits far too soon. There's nothing much to replace him, so we're in for a long 102 minutes.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
Take Open Water, subtract the Caribbean, substitute the Grand Canyon, and you have The Canyon.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A taut, unpredictable and intense thriller. You'll never look at the Grand Canyon the same way again.
What Would Toto Watch?
Christian Toto
We've seen much of The Canyon before, but the crisp execution transforms the film into more than just a boilerplate thriller.
Boston Phoenix
Peter Keough
The Canyon attests to how a first-rate character actor can elevate a poor film to the ranks of the mediocre.
Boxoffice Magazine
Wade Major
Competent execution and respectable performances still can't save this threadbare attempt at a minimalistic Deliverance.
Variety
Rob Nelson
The Canyon could be named for the gaping expanse between its preposterously silly dialogue and sturdy, at times urgent direction.
Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
Bad things happen to good people in this intermittently effective chiller.
IGN Movies
Christopher Monfette
In the absence of common sense or basic survival skills, when the end comes, for both the characters and the audience, it's a very welcome rescue indeed.
East Bay Express
Kelly Vance
For a story so bald on narrative incident, The Canyon is sweaty-palms scary.
L.A. Weekly
Andrew Schenker
Another one for the bad-stuff-happens-to-stupid-people file, The Canyon might at least offer the satisfaction of a few squirmy thrills, if it weren't so insistent on treating its central couple's plight as the stuff of high tragedy.
