Reindeer Games Ratings & Reviews
tellum
May 29, 2025
This movie has so many senseless twists that M Night Shyamalan would be embarrassed.
New York Times
Elvis Mitchell
Narratively, the movie is similar to a casino game: you're not sure where you are and the house has the advantage.
Detroit News
Susan Stark
Reindeer Games is too tricky to let the audience join the fun.
Film.com
Tom Keogh
Frankenheimer does make Reindeer Games a bigger experience than it might have been in anyone else's hands.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Reindeer Games is basically a test of your ability to accept a slushpile of implausible twisteroos and Tarantino-style conceits.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Desmond Ryan
A film noir with a bracing twist of black comedy.
Dallas Morning News
Philip Wuntch
The film's action sequences explode with excitement as well as a clarity that's often missing from contemporary action vignettes.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
Reindeer Games is the sort of movie in which nothing is quite what it seems.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
Watchable but sometimes quite ludicrous.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
Frankenheimer at 70 hasn't lost a step in his game.
CNN.com
Paul Clinton (CNN.com)
A pileup of impossible-to-believe situations that just keep getting worse with every line uttered by anyone who happens to be on screen.
The Hollywood Reporter
David Hunter
Gets lost in a blizzard of cliches and uneven performances.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
The end is a long time coming in Reindeer Games and the dialogue is mostly slush.
Houston Chronicle
Louis B. Parks
The movie is often amusing, thanks to Affleck's excellent deadpan delivery of flippant lines in the face of loaded guns and to Sinise's scenery-chewing villain.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
About as appealing as leftover Christmas fruitcake.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
It's a heist without a plan, a crime without a brain, a thriller without a decent script.
Salon.com
Charles Taylor
There isn't a scene that's not an insult to the eyes.
USA Today
Susan Wloszczyna
The pummeling and plotting grow tedious.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
Frankenheimer ... treats this trashy, disreputable material with a brute squareness so leaden and dour it's practically Teutonic.
Film.com
Gemma Files
It just vanishes from between your ears like cotton-candy in a tropical rainstorm, leaving nothing but a slightly sickly aftertaste.
