New York Times

Keeping the violence — and the villain — mainly in the shadows, the filmmakers build to a climax that’s frustratingly dumb and drawn-out.

Sunshine State Cineplex

Even a few well-executed scenes can raise the bar and hint at the potential to come in a career. Skeels has potential but needs more reps to get where he needs to go.

Rated: 4/10

Assignment X

Wolfe is personable and committed, Bassinger nails the ‘70s vibe, and Skai Jackson is likable and credible as Annie’s best friend Patty.

Rated: B-

One Guy's Opinion

A serial-killer potboiler that doesn’t even simmer, let alone get up a full head of stream...resembles nothing more than the chintzy made-for-video so-called thrillers that filled the shelves of Blockbusters in the eighties and nineties.

Rated: D

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Common Sense Media

This extremely poor, lumbering thriller, which barely has enough ideas to sustain a 20-minute short, borrows most of its supposedly tense moments from dozens of other, better movies.

Rated: 1/5

CBR

For what it is, The Man In the White Van is a solid and respectable endeavor, beautifully crafted and shot, impeccably designed, and with a worthwhile payoff in its final fifteen-minute stretch.

Rated: 7/10

I was impressed by the scary factor. Based in 1970 and I feel that they did a great job with time period correctness. It felt real.

I did enjoy this movie. It was a tad slow to start, but the movie kept me interested enough. I found it to be very suspenseful. Some parts almost stressful to my heart Lol. The one sister was so annoying however, she redeemed herself towards the end in my eyes. Love Ali Larter. Dad (Sean Astin), was a little nerdy. Would have liked to seen someone different paired up with Ali. I would recommend this movie because it has enough excitement and thrill build up.
