Kill Switch Ratings & Reviews
Third Coast Review
Steven Prokopy
Stevens and the other actors are quite good, but the film doesn't quite match their abilities.
Spectrum Culture
Josh Goller
The parallel world created in Kill Switch may not be devoid of life, but it might as well be.
Solzy at the Movies
Danielle Solzman
Kill Switch...is another example of why video game-style films don't make the best of movies-because they simply aren't good.
The Young Folks
Jon Winkler
Kill Switch is essentially a cutscene from Halo that somehow stretches for 90 minutes, and you keep wanting to press the skip button to start playing.
Punch Drunk Critics
Travis Hopson
The action level is never quite as high as it should be to justify the first-person view, and so it feels too often like we're watching somebody play an RPG, which is boring as Hell.
Film Journal International
André Hereford
A visually ambitious, convoluted muddle of gamer-influenced science fiction.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Through visual trickery and a jumbled chronology, the muddled film is structured as a puzzle about corporate greed, socioeconomic class and technological overreach that most moviegoers won't care enough to solve.
RogerEbert.com
Simon Abrams
The worst kind of science-fiction film: the kind that coasts on a central gimmick instead of delivering either visceral or intellectual thrills.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
It looks fine enough, but looking fine enough can't be the extent of an entire movie.
Paste Magazine
Andy Crump
It's either puzzling or vexing, and either way it's plain old disappointing.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Imagining the imminent end of the world has been boring for years now in movies, and the low-budget sci-fi thriller "Kill Switch" is no exception.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
A pointless gush of science-fiction bilge.
Chicago Daily Herald
Dann Gire
The tiresome, desensitizing first-person-shooter aesthetics in Kill Switch (not to be confused with Steven Seagal's 2008 thriller) diminish what modest humanity Smit's movie musters.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
"Kill Switch" doesn't summon dramatic thunder, but it stands up relatively straight for a genre picture, working to find character while it indulges first-person pandemonium.
Variety
Scott Tobias
"Kill Switch" might have been the next "Primer" or "District B13," but instead it feels like a demo reel for a game that nobody can play.
Village Voice
Chris Packham
An ungainly hybrid of two totally disparate mediums that have been Human Centipede-d together: film and first-person-shooter video games. Film is not the front end of this configuration.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Chris Bumbray
Similar to HARDCORE HENRY, in that it's like watching someone else play a video game for ninety minutes.
Slant Magazine
Christopher Gray
Dan Stevens navigates the film's literal and thematic alleyways with the same enthusiastic befuddlement that convinced many to soldier through Legion's more impenetrable stretches.
Film Threat
Bradley Gibson
It's not deeply cerebral cinema by any means but it is 90 minutes of kinetic edge-of-your-seat fun.
