Damaged isn’t trying to be a meme, it’s playing things completely straight... That sincerity, and the apparent genuine commitment of top-tier performers like Jackson, is what makes this ripely absurd film at least half-worth watching.

Rated: 3/5

The Hollywood Reporter

Unfortunately, [the ending isn't] nearly enough compensation for the roughly 90 minutes of tedium preceding it.

“Damaged” is too efficiently handled to be dull, or even overtly bad — though viewers may find themselves rolling their eyes a bit after a while.

The murder scenes themselves are studiously grisly, though the film's overall visual style never rises above that of a TV drama.

Rated: 2/5

A stacked cast can’t stop Edinburgh-set serial killer thriller "Damaged" from looking like a pound shop "Seven".

Rated: 1/5

Really gruesome horror. Storyline a bit flimsy but good cinematography. Lots of holes in the story and ending is vague and inexplicable. Cast relatively good in character but lacks finesse

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Un policial entretenido con algunas buenas ideas, actuaciones y ritmo que es completamente ARRUINADA por un intento de giro sorprendente al final que quedo ridículo e incoherente.

Boring, predictable and with bad acting. The ending part is really laughable, not a twist. Delusional.
