The Fanatic Reviews
AV Club
Katie Rife
The action, while bloodier than one might expect, is as goofy and dim-witted as the dialogue.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
The movie does not live up to the extravagantly wounded ferocity with which Travolta attacks his part. It doesn't even live up to the haircut.
Observer
Rex Reed
It's a disaster.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
This film has no entertainment value to supplement for the lack of humanity at its center.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
This drifts into the category of campy oddity, leaving us once again waiting and hoping for John Travolta to find his next great part.
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
Travolta, earnest but ridiculous, spends his time furiously rocking back and forth and bellowing to the heavens.
San Francisco Chronicle
Zaki Hasan
"The Fanatic" marks another fascinating stickpin in John Travolta's decades-long journey from leading man to character actor.
Entertainment Weekly
Christian Holub
The Fanatic has contempt for both its characters and audience.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Christy Lemire
This is the worst movie of the year quite possibly, but it absolutely must be experienced.
Pajiba
Kristy Puchko
Travolta's performance is as bad as that haircut and as loud as his costumes.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
One can understand the draw of The Fanatic for someone like Mr. Travolta: It calls for full immersion, mentally and physically. And he pulls it off.
NPR
Simon Abrams
The Fanatic stinks because Durst doesn't really care about whatever it is that's motivating Moose.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
It's probably for the best that "The Fanatic" is so terrible. If it were made with any actual care, it'd be offensive instead of just dumb.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
As it lumbers to its climax, the movie delineates the border that separates the merely stale from the genuinely rancid.
Salon.com
Gary M. Kramer
"The Fanatic" needs to be stronger, or wilder, or creepier. Mostly, it just needs to be better. Travolta, who seems to be racing Nicolas Cage to the bottom these days, gives a cringe-inducing performance as Moose.
Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
An actor who should retire meets a director who never should've started.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
This paralyzingly awkward combination of "I Am Sam" and "The Fan" (either version) plus a little "Misery" - OK, make that a lot of misery - does truly impress in all the wrong ways.
TheWrap
Robert Abele
A brainless, exploitative folly which gives John Travolta free rein to mine the history of cringe-worthy autism portrayals for an offensively garish Frankenstein pantomime of unhinged obsession.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
John Travolta's committed performance can't salvage this ridiculous low-budget thriller.

I am a big Travolta fan and remember his glory days. This Kathy Bates/"Misery" rip-off is another nail in his career coffin.
