Blair Witch Ratings & Reviews
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Belated "official" sequel to 1999 hit updates technology but repeats the original's shocks - only much louder and lamer
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Wingard was in high school when "The Blair Witch Project" came out, so he's checking something off his personal list here. Everyone else moved on from "Blair Witch," with good reason, a long time ago.
The New Republic
Will Leitch
Blair Witch nods to the first film but never rediscovers its power.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Running and screaming may be essential to a lot of horror movies, but as "Blair Witch" shows, they're not scary in themselves. For that, you need the stuff between the running and screaming.
CBR
Kristy Puchko
"Blair Witch" is a pale imitation, lacking wit, tension or anything resembling scares.
Vox
Aja Romano
A movie that contributes nothing new to either the Blair Witch mythos or the vast landscape of found-footage horror.
Complex
Kristen Yoonsoo Kim
Blair Witch is probably fascinating for young viewers who had never seen the original movie and didn't live through that hype, but for those familiar, it offers nothing new.
GQ
Scott Tobias
The microphones on the tiny digital cameras shouldn't be picking up much, but verisimilitude be damned, because Blair Witch renders every snapped stick, crushed leaf, and distant guttural noise as an ear-blistering assault.
The Atlantic
Christopher Orr
Blair Witch follows the original's beats so precisely that at times it seems the film is more eager to elicit memories of its predecessor than to stand on its own at all.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
It's less a sequel or a "reboot" than a remake, but without the freshness of the stylistic and marketing hooks that made the first one so memorable.
Slate
Jeffrey Bloomer
Barrett and Wingard slavishly reprise the beats of the original movie and suffer gravely by comparison.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
The acting and filmmaking are too crude to make you care about what happens ... even though you know pretty much exactly what that will be.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
This sequel gets progressively messy while The Blair Witch Project grew progressively taut.
NPR
Chris Klimek
Tedious in its early going and all but unwatchable in its final half-hour, the movie feels interminable at a barely-feature-length 89 minutes.
Washington Post
Mark Jenkins
"Blair Witch" runs only eight minutes past the original, yet it feels about a half-hour longer.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Even if the movie doesn't do anything new, it shows that when talented filmmakers pool their talents and give a project their all even the most tired of subjects and stylistic choices can suddenly feel fresh.
Village Voice
Michael Nordine
Blair Witch's comparatively maximalist approach shows too much and scares too little.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Zwecker
All in all, Blair Witch was quite satisfying and made me think: This is what the first sequel to the original film should have accomplished.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Tirdad Derakhshani
It's nothing more than a sophisticated clone of the original, and it really overdoes the shaky-camera thing - even more than in some of the worst found-footage movies The Blair Witch Project spawned.
Entertainment Weekly
Kevin P. Sullivan
Blair Witch manages to strike a balance between pleasing the fans of the 1999 found-footage film and working as a Friday night at the multiplex, mainly by sticking to the principle that what you don't see will always be scarier.
