The Wicker Man Ratings & Reviews
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
The '73 film is brilliantly constructed and ends with a punctuation mark that was shocking in its day. LaBute's movie attempts to shock, as well, and does: Given the names involved and the casting of Cage, it is shockingly bad.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
The whole thing is transparently a concoction, and so even though the movie holds you, its climax lacks that tingle of madness. All that's burning is some sticks.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
The Wicker Man is comically inept as a horror movie, unable to even manage an effective false scare, or sustain suspense for more than a beat or two.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
The first Wicker Man was about a cult. The remake is more about a dolt.
Los Angeles Times
Mark Olsen
LaBute's remake is an interesting idea that never transforms into a particularly satisfying movie.
AV Club
Tasha Robinson
The original Wicker Man had its flaws, particularly in the lumpy pacing. LaBute's thoroughly inessential remake not only lovingly reproduces those flaws, it introduces a slew of new ones.
San Francisco Chronicle
Ruthe Stein
Nicolas Cage's finest hours are not spent frantically running through a forest in The Wicker Man, especially when he must do so dressed in a bear suit.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Cage over the years has more than earned a reputation as an actor who is not afraid to embarrass himself, but in the cause of The Wicker Man, that seems less a commendation than a horrible misjudgment.
ChrisStuckmann.com
Chris Stuckmann
Sometimes a movie hits the rarest of heights, in fact, some may refer to it as a low. A film that's so utterly bad it's actually good.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Nearly all of what made the 1973 film such an unforgettable cinematic experience is lost in translation.
UGO
Brian Tallerico
In the final act of The Wicker Man, when Nicolas Cage has donned a bear suit, you have to wonder just what it is you're watching.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
This wasn't a horror film the first time around, and LaBute makes sorry feints at effective creepiness.
Associated Press
Christy Lemire
It's never as scary or suspenseful as it aspires to be, but it might just be the greatest bad movie of the year, with its clunky writing resulting in some surprisingly entertaining kooky moments.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Far more ambitious and stylish than most of today's horror crop, Neil LaBute's remake of the 1973 U.K. cult classic The Wicker Man unfortunately still falls far short of its mark.
Variety
Joe Leydon
Yet another needless 're-imagining' of a '70s cult fave that, truth to tell, is better remembered than actually viewed, Neil LaBute's folly follows the basic plot outline of the 1974 Brit horror opus of the same title.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
All the fertility rites in the secluded Pacific Northwest island of Summersisle can't bring life to Neil Labute's barren remake of 1973's The Wicker Man.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
The gimmicky horror-flick conventions ultimately drag the film to a screeching halt.
Cinema Sight
Wesley Lovell
An exploitative mystery horror film in which Edward Woodward overacts his heart out.
