Dead Man Down Ratings & Reviews
New York Post
Kyle Smith
While a mob thriller can be as nasty as it likes, what it can't be is silly.
AV Club
Nathan Rabin
It takes forever to get going, unspooling its hopelessly convoluted, unwieldy plot for so long that it loses whatever marginal narrative momentum it possesses.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
The film has been directed in a murky, rhythmless fashion by Niels Arden Oplev, who directed Rapace in the original, and terrific, Swedish-language The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
This blend of Scandinavian gloom and Hollywood hokum never jells.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
When an early shootout erupts with a reggae-beat score, it's clear this director sees carnage as nothing more than an opportunity for music-video production values.
What the Flick?!
Alonso Duralde
There's a crazypants crime movie and the damaged-people-find-each-other relationship movie, but together, it's a jambalaya that doesn't work.
The New Republic
David Thomson
Suppose Armand Assante had played the mother, not as a father, as a mother. Suppose Isabelle Huppert had taken the Colin Farrell part. This may be no more than playful, but heaven knows Dead Man Down needs as much of that as it can get.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
More a dark fairy tale about vengeance than the action-packed crime thriller it purports to be, the film is at times exhilarating, bold, and beautiful -- when it's not busy being ludicrous, fragmented, and just plain stupid.
Film.com
Stephanie Zacharek
Dead Man Down is a very serious thriller featuring very serious stars being very serious about the seriousness at hand.
Associated Press
Jake Coyle
The screenplay by J. H. Wyman is squirm-inducing in its preposterous dialogue and haphazard plotting.
Village Voice
Nick Schager
It's all so much turgid brooding, dialogue underlined with import, and leaden symbolism involving Rapace's white and red dresses, none of which is salvaged by a typically understated Farrell performance.
Variety
Peter Debruge
A derivative collection of brazen plot holes and latenight-cable cliches.
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
A moody twist of hyper-violent vengeance and heartache where death is hand-delivered, mercy is hard to come by and love is never easy.
TheWrap
Leah Rozen
In the end, a viewer can do little more than appreciate Dead Man's shimmering look and wish all involved better luck in their next endeavor.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
As a gritty thriller, Dead Man Down doesn't stand out among its bullet-riddled brethren.
ScreenCrush
Jordan Hoffman
I can see people renting this over VOD. I can also see a lot of people turning to the person next to them on the couch and asking "do you want to finish this?"
Slant Magazine
Calum Marsh
The action merely meanders when it should be hurtling forward, running in circles when one expects it to head toward a conclusion or some sense of resolution.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
The movie might have been better if its Swedish director, Niels Arden Oplev, had played with the genre clichs stuffed in this turkey instead of going for straight-up action.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
That crack cast still keeps things involving, especially Rapace's emotionally and physically disfigured Beatrice.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Before it devolves into typical American-style action, there's an intriguing, European-style complexity to Dead Man Down.
