Michael Hutak Sydney Morning Herald 02/28/2024
Aimed at teenage boys, this film offers a rather stylish "as you were" to those who already live deranged in a testosterone-induced reverie. Go to Full Review
Variety Staff Variety 09/02/2008
This is an exceedingly well directed, cleverly filmed and edited, tension-filled affair. It is also a wholly preposterous, muddled, paranoid view of the inner-city nightmare where the slightest misstep is sure to have a fateful result. Go to Full Review
Janet Maslin New York Times 05/20/2003
3/5
A tight, energetic sleeper in the action-adventure genre, manages to pack a few anti-machismo sentiments into an otherwise brawny tale. Go to Full Review
Chase Whale ChaseWhale.com 02/12/2019
The film was directed by Stephen Hopkins who directed PREDATOR 2 and BLOWN AWAY, so this film has "irresistible 90s movie" written all over it. Go to Full Review
Matt Brunson Film Frenzy 02/06/2019
2/4
Short on both logic and suspense. Go to Full Review
Ed Travis Cinapse 11/02/2018
Judgment Night isn't so much the 90s classic you want it to be; but rather a nondescript footnote with killer tunes guiding you through. Go to Full Review

Craig W. @CJWolfe27 Dec 2 Entertaining under rated action thriller movie with a great cast. The soundtrack is great as well. See more mark g @Mark_Alan_G. Nov 20 Cliches and tedium. This theme has been done a million times, usually a lot better. Dennis Leary is such an uninteresting actor. Piven also tiring. Estevez is decent, but he can't carry the rest of them. See more Michael S. @mstrocko Nov 13 Couple things: (1) This movie is very, very, VERY dumb. (2) Alan Silvestri’s score sounds a lot like his score from Predator. I kept waiting for the predator to show up and start hunting the characters in this movie. Would’ve made a much better film. See more Justin M. @McFlick5150 Nov 3 Judgement Night is just a cool 90s thriller. Actors being convincing and with thrills to match. It looks great and has some cool shots in it. I think it does go a little long, but the climatic third act is a ton of fun. It’s crazy that mid 90s thriller just looked this good. How far we’ve fallen. See more Dallas H Sep 27 This movie screams '90s filmmaking. It's just one slow clap away from being cemented into the history books of '90s Movie Tropes right next to the huge Old Style Beer paid sponsorship banner. I'm not sure if it's due to the passage of time and increased knowledge about his overall acting career, but I struggle to believe Dennis Leary is a suitable casting choice for a drug dealer set on "leaving no witnesses". See more Stoner J @Stoner Aug 5 It’s a bit of a Trespass (1992) ripoff, but it really is good, and thrilling. And done very well. Trespass is a bit better though for sure See more Read all reviews
