Critics Consensus

Strong work from Benicio del Toro and Alicia Silverstone isn't enough to make up for Reptile's convoluted and ultimately underwhelming story.

Audience Says

Solid acting and an engaging mystery help Reptile keep you hooked despite its slow pacing and a plot that might be too complicated for its own good.

Claudia Puig

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

A pretty effective murder mystery... [Benicio Del Toro] has aged very nicely into this sort of role.

Kambole Campbell

Empire Magazine

Del Toro’s solid screen charisma can’t rescue Reptile, a derivative and lethargic thriller that rarely thrills as it tries and fails to build a case for itself as a meaningful iteration on the detective thrillers that it admires.

Rated: 2/5

Robert Abele

Los Angeles Times

The fallout from all this purposeful gloom isn't merely that nothing surprises us; even Del Toro's committed portrayal of a careful man's gathering disillusionment gets jammed up.

CGMagazine

Benicio Del Toro’s solid lead performance can’t prevent Reptile from being a boring, forgettable procedural.

Rated: 5/10

Ramble On With Buffa (Substack)

Hat tip to Del Toro and company. I like scripts that present a familiar formula in a mystery, and then proceed to have fun with the whodunit.

El Nuevo Día (Puerto Rico)

The script suffers from having an excess of twists executed at a slow pace... [but] the cast never makes it boring. [Full review in Spanish]

My boyfriend and I love watching thriller movies. This was honestly a bit slow at first but very worth it. Went from 1 to 100 to 100 to 1000. Highly recommend. If you are someone who enjoys good films (good cinematography and sound design) then this is definitely a must-see! My boyfriend says this might be his favorite thriller movie!

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

It’s a good story , but maybe not that compelling and maybe the suspense was not worth all the long hours till the movie end .

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Atmosfere cupe e sinistre che danno una percezione della trama molto più cruda di quello che in realtà risulta essere. I personaggi hanno una buona costruzione, profonda e piuttosto dettagliata. Molto meno originale invece risulta essere la trama, che dopo un inizio pieno di dubbi e di possibili sviluppi, si riduce ad essere l'ennesimo poliziesco che termina con il più classico esempio di corruzione spiccia. Il finale è deludente e riduttivo, lascia delusi per tutte le opportunità che non sono state colte durante lo svolgimento e che lasciano montaggio ed atmosfere come gli elementi migliori.

Great movie BUT they made him so stupid. There is a reason she went to the FBI and not the cops and he is so stupid he actually brings it up to the cops lmfao
