Critics Consensus

An action thriller that's neither action-packed nor thrilling, End of the Road wastes a pair of perfectly good stars on a bottom-of-the-barrel story.

Audience Says

Queen Latifah and Ludacris could make perfect co-stars in the right movie, but End of the Road isn't it.

Queen Latifah and Ludacris drive right into a brick wall of action clichés.

One of the reasons we get not just one but four final black people is because in End of the Road, community is the heart of the story.

Ian Spelling

AV Club

Delivers pretty much everything you want from an action thriller, and it benefits from a most unexpected and welcome element: characters you care about.

Rated: B

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

In what is supposed to be a high-octane action-thriller, End of the Road does not deliver much of action or thrills promised.

Rated: 5/10

The Star (Kenya)

The plot is so straightforward that a viewer can predict the ending just several minutes in.

The Stranger (Seattle, WA)

Get Out, the defining 21st-century Black horror film, is ostensibly about white supremacy in the Obama age. The End of the Road is the follow-up; because it's dealing with a different kind of beast...

That was a bottom of the barrel script. Predictable and ridiculous. What a waste of talent.

this was one of the worst movies ive ever seen. the acting was horrific, the dialogue was horrific, the cgi was horrific. i wish i could go back to an hour and a half ago before i decided to watch this horrific movie. literally 90 minutes of my life that i will never get back.

was rolling my eyes throughout most of the movie. great actors (although completely hated the way they portrayed the family to be, seemed a bit racist), liked the ending twist. just really frustrating and irritating how they'd make the most idiotic decisions ever.
