Mark Hanson Slant Magazine Paul Greengrass's The Lost Bus may reminded you of ’90s blockbusters like Dante’s Peak. But should it? Rated: 2/4 Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com When it trusts its performers (and its audience), Paul Greengrass’s 'The Lost Bus’ is an immersive experience, something that should be seen loud and in one sitting instead of broken up on a small screen like so many Apple TV+ movies end up Rated: 3/4 Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Steve Pond TheWrap There are times when the fiery landscape is staggering and times when it screams CG, but few directors can rev up a movie and keep it at a fever pitch the way Greengrass can. Sep 7, 2025 Full Review Ridge Harripersad CGMagazine The Lost Bus’s strengths were evidently in its character acting and writing. Rated: 6.5/10 Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Damon Wise Deadline Hollywood Daily It’s a trip in more than one sense of the word, and yet another streaming release this year that demands to be seen on the big screen. Sep 7, 2025 Full Review Giovanni Lago Next Best Picture McConaughey and Ferrera are one of the few aspects of “The Lost Bus” that work efficiently despite the generic nature of it all. Rated: 6/10 Sep 6, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
