Despite the valiant efforts of a game and talented cast, Criminal has little to offer beyond the bare minimum expected by the most undemanding of genre enthusiasts.

The movie is a little more fun than it has any right to be, thanks to its super-serious cast (including Tommy Lee Jones, Ryan Reynolds, Gary Oldman, and Gal Gadot) and the straight-faced approach to its ridiculous shenanigans. Apr 25, 2016 | Full Review…

All the ingredients are there for a pleasant pander to grumpy old white men: the craggy actors, the foreign bad guys wielding confusing technology, the kindness of beautiful young women, and the nobility of sacrifice. Apr 21, 2016 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

Criminal is an action-thriller with a science fiction twist. To the extent that its purpose is to energize and involve an audience, it succeeds. Apr 17, 2016 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Neither scriptwriters Douglas Cook and David Weisberg nor Vromen in the director's chair are subtle enough to figure out how to do both action and character. Apr 15, 2016 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

For the most part it's a pretty by the number thriller, riddled with cliches, that slightly sets itself apart because of its sheer insanity. Jan 15, 2019 | Rating: C- | Full Review…

Criminal is a harmless, if disposable piece of pre-summer entertainment, and as is so often the case, even when the material doesn't measure up, Kevin Costner is just eminently watchable. Nov 2, 2018 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…

They all yell at the sky while shaking their fists, utter overly dramatic lines with such conviction, and seem fully aware of the absurdity of the film. Aug 29, 2018 | Full Review…

Criminal has plot holes you can drive a submarine through, but thanks to Costner's...sensitive performance, the audience starts to root for its heroic villain, and may well cheer when he reaches for a weaponized cactus. Aug 29, 2018 | Full Review…
