Dead Man Down Movie Review
A way-too-leisurely thriller whose destination is fairly obvious from early on, but to which the talented cast apply themselves with effortful seriousness.Trevor Johnston-Time Out
Explores a common ground for noir thrillers before stumbling and imploding in a climax that feels like it might have been hijacked from an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie.
James Berardinelli-ReelViews
While a mob thriller can be as nasty as it likes, what it can't be is silly.
Kyle Smith-New York Post
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.
Bilge Ebiri-New York Magazine
Dead Man Down is a very serious thriller featuring very serious stars being very serious about the seriousness at hand.
Stephanie Zacharek-Film.com
This blend of Scandinavian gloom and Hollywood hokum never jells.
Rafer Guzman-Newsday
A scatter-brained plot never quite works itself out.
Jim Schembri-3AW
The plot takes a bit too long to get any traction and consequently the film feels rather long. Still, I like the fusion of Hollywood and European filmmaking sensibilities
Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile
Colin Farrell and Noomi Rapace are a knockout combination, their relationship grounded on a knife's edge of destruction
Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile
Dead Man Down feels like two different films struggling against each other. One a brooding Euro thriller, the other a clunky Hollywood actioner. Neither really works.
Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor
There are a couple of decent action scenes but this is just too ridiculous to be taken as seriously as it expects to be. With a slight re-edit, it could be re-released as Naked Gun 4.
Andy Lea-Daily Star
It's a modern-day, edgy love story at heart ... The climatic ending ... is pretty spectacular ... Though nothing new, it's beautifully realised and shot.
Lisa Giles-Keddie-HeyUGuys
Needless to say, the whole thing builds towards a big shoot-out, but none of the action is executed with any verve or style.
Alistair Harkness-Scotsman
Dead Man Down is a self-consciously dark movie that's ultimately let down by JH Wyman's script.
Philip French-Observer [UK]
As with The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Oplev uses darkness to convey atmosphere despite the overt crispness of the movie's digital look. Some old-fashioned celluloid grain would have done it the world of good.
Graham Young-Birmingham Mail
A sturdy potboiler that's directed with a European sense of space and rhythm, accepting of character flaws, and generous with time for characters to breathe and develop at their own pace.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Common Sense Media
[Rapace] will be enough to send some to this urban thriller but the film will send them away disappointed.
Derek Malcolm-This is London
By the time Dead Man Down descends into ultra-violence, you'll be long past caring.
Emma Dibdin-Digital Spy
Here's yet another preposterous action movie that's made watchable by a skilful director and an engaging cast.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com
It soon collapses into violent and boring nonsense.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
A lifeless attempt to fuse a taut crime thriller and a complex psychological drama.
Nigel Floyd-Film4
You are left feeling sorry for the actors who do their best, including Britain's Dominic Cooper, wasted as a dorkish gangster colleague of Victor's.
Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express
Oplev, who made The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, can do this stuff in his sleep and somnambulism is largely the style here.
Nigel Andrews-Financial Times
This is too dull to function as a thriller and too silly to qualify as anything else.
Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph
A disappointingly by-the-numbers revenge yarn unspieled at great length ...
Tim Evans-Sky Movies
Any film in which Isabelle Huppert is cast and then given absolutely nothing to do is a crime against cinema.
Martyn Conterio-Little White Lies
