Proof of Life Reviews
Top CriticI was interested all through the movie--interested, but not riveted.

The movie's impressive look cannot fully compensate for the uneven and partially involving nature of the overall story.

The unconvincing Proof of Life is a missed opportunity.

The trouble with Proof of Life is that this high stakes crisis -- in real life -- probably causes more personal stress and conflict than we saw.
It's the same old story, a fight for love and glory, except that time goes by . . . slowwwwly.

| Original Score: 2.5/5
Story's backdrop is interesting and relevant, but nearly everything that has been placed in the foreground is hackneyed and lacking in imagination.
Proof of life? Only at the end of the movie.
[A] flat and thoroughly predictable piece of filmmaking.
Reeling Reviews
The story ... is far less exciting than the gossip generated during the film's production.

Messy plotting, contextless direction, superfluous characters, often inept acting, and zero chemistry between its leads.

I wish there had been more proof in Proof of Life that the filmmakers were alive and kicking.

Crackles, sputters, and starts up finally in the last half of the movie.

| Original Score: C-
When it's dull, which it is too often for a kidnap caper, this movie is about a woman chirping 'notice anything new about my outfit?' to a man whose idea of style is a jacket not crusted in human blood.

The film is still paint-by-numbers.
