Ben Kenigsberg Time Out Rated: 2/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Joshua Rothkopf Time Out Rated: 2/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Bruce Westbrook Houston Chronicle The cast shows spark and gusto, especially Laura Harris as a vulnerable yet intrepid survivor type and Danny Dyer as a bent druggie who straightens out long enough to fight back. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 8, 2007 Full Review Steve Newton Georgia Straight Discriminating horror fans should also note that it's the most exhilarating fright flick to hit theatres since last year's The Descent. Rated: 4/5 Jul 6, 2010 Full Review Tricia Olszewski Washington City Paper Severance is a story of terrible things that couldn't have happened to funnier people. Mar 6, 2008 Full Review David Cornelius eFilmCritic.com Sitting through its increasingly sluggish pace feels like, well, work. Rated: 2/5 Oct 3, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews
