Critic Reviews for Fatal Countdown: Reset

All Critics (8) | Top Critics (4) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (4)

Chang's direction is forceful and direct, his ability to keep things moving at a fevered, ever-escalating pace certainly not something to be undervalued.

A time-tripping Chinese-produced thriller that demonstrates just how far a mom will travel to save her son.

Over all, this is an exciting film if not a completely cohesive one ...

Time creeps by in "Reset," a Chinese sci-fi film with a strong concept and weak execution.

Kimber Myers

Breakneck chases, high-altitude jeopardy and split-second rescues upstage everything save for a flowery moral: No technological breakthrough is more disruptive than a mother's love.

For those who love behind-the-scenes analyses, especially of creative work, Reset offers a rich and detailed overview at almost two hours running time.

There's some pretty solid and rather nifty playing with time travel in Reset. That is until the third act...

For someone who used to work as a lab researcher, Yang's character puts to shame Liam Neeson's former CIA agent in Taken.
