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-

Frank Swietek

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.
