Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (LAist) Two rules: don't show me your monster and don't explain it, because whatever you say is going to be silly. They broke both rules. May 8, 2025 Full Review Christy Lemire FilmWeek (LAist) It's a tough balance to strike and I don't think the sci-fi part works as well as [the romance]. The two [actors] have a lot of chemistry and look great together, the film looks great, and the score is great. May 8, 2025 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News The special effects are quite good, but “The Gorge” doesn’t scale the goofy heights in a rollercoaster ride way that it thinks it does, stalling out with a hackneyed ending that makes you shrug your shoulders and want to move on to something better. Rated: 2/4 Mar 3, 2025 Full Review Maxance Vincent FlickSided Scott Derrickson elevates The Gorge through its artful visuals and a thrilling techno-heavy score from Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, even if its storytelling frequently stumbles throughout its 128-minute runtime. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 25, 2025 Full Review Dave Giannini Geek Vibes Nation For a movie like this to excel, the creators have to thread a very specific needle. The romance has to spark. The monsters have to be terrifying. The mystery needs to be fully engaging. Unfortunately, The Gorge is halfway there in all three facets. Rated: 5.5/10 Jul 19, 2025 Full Review Alise Chaffins MacGuffin or Meaning (Substack) The Gorge does a great job of striking a balance between a sweet romance between Levi and Drasa while also giving a relatively menacing monster to root against. Rated: 3/5 Jul 15, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Matt L Like a Rom-Hor. The first hour was so cheesy it was almost unbearable. Like a crappy 90s high school romance movie. Second half was okay and maybe slightly worth sticking it out through the first. But jeez that first half. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/29/25 Full Review Jim B Worst film I’ve seen in years. So congratulations on that. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/28/25 Full Review Audience Member This was a good blend of Romance, Thriller, and Sci Fi. I wasn’t sure I would like this movie, because I checked out some of the “Bad Reviews” on here. But, I was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be a good movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/27/25 Full Review Jacob D Genre Bender through the roof! Absolute talent telling a unique love story with pulse pounding action in a military sci-fi horror romance flick! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/25/25 Full Review William G Absolutely braindead movie. Beyond terrible. No reason why this should tolerated. It's actually painful to see in real time the money that was burned to bring this meaningless amalgamation of images to life. Some people might find this review silly and think to themselves "oh that movie was okay", and that's precisely why I feel this way. The cultural standards gets lowered every time a "movie" like this gets released and people just accept it. Honestly what the hell was even that movie? It's like 10 different ideas all crammed up under the same umbrella of mediocrity. Ask yourself a question, did you feel anything emotionally at all during this film? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/23/25 Full Review Jennifer Any d Mds, como esse filme é bom! Ele entregou td, personagens bonitos com personalidades incríveis, romance com uma baita química e plot twist q vale a pena. Simplesmente amo o quanto os personagens conseguem construir uma amizade - oq mais para frente se torna um romance - sem trocar uma palavra, apenas se comunicando por plaquinhas e alguns tiros aqui e ali kkkkkkkk. A atuação de ambos os personagens principais são mto boas, não há oq reclamar. É aquele filme q consegue misturar mto bem aventura, fantasia e romance. Recomendo mto Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/23/25 Full Review Read all reviews
