Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times 04/14/2006
2/4
There are big ideas nibbling around the edges of the screenplay, but the movie seems underwhelmed by its own startling material. Go to Full Review

Bringing back the dead ... feels old hat by now, a feeling mitigated only in bits and pieces by this decently crafted plod. Go to Full Review
Robert Koehler Variety 01/23/2006
Even if it overplays its ghoulish central concept, Subject Two honorably reps the neglected cerebral horror sub-genre. Go to Full Review

3/5
O curioso roteiro passa perto de algumas boas questões filosóficas, abandonando-as por aparente falta de ambição. Ainda assim, prende a atenção até o fim; não com suspense, mas com seus personagens. Go to Full Review

03/19/2016 I enjoyed this film. It's more of a thought provoking science fiction movie rather than a horror/thriller. The concept is very interesting and the end had a good twist to it. This was really good considering it was probably done with a lower budget than most. If your looking for horror or action...you probably won't like this film. *SPOILER* It seemed like every time subject 2 was killed and brought back he lost a piece of his soul when all along if the "Doctor" had just waited it out after the first resurrection...the negative side effects would've passed and the "subject" would've been fine. But the doctor was too busy trying to be God to actually allow the serum enough time to work correctly. See more Frances H 05/26/2015 Interesting indi scifi flick. Gorgeous mountain scenery. See more 05/05/2015 150508: This movie was really looking good to me, for quite awhile. Loved the concept and the inhumane treatment of Adam was shocking. When the Professor makes his appearance it was a real let down. I did not find Thomas Buesch at all appropriate for the character. He just didn't seem to fit in with the rest of the film. Too bad as this film had/has a lot going for it. See more 12/04/2013 Talky, moody and slow-moving. See more 06/28/2013 looks like made for cable crap. See more 07/23/2012 This movie sucks and it's a waste of time watching it. See more Read all reviews
