Lands a few good punches but other than Peter Mullan it's a little too weak. I must say Michelle Ryan looks a knockout as a goth, though.

A bit overacted and some questionable storytelling. Could be better if they knew how to speak English clearly because I couldn't understand some of what was being said.

London Evening Standard

The Man Inside is well made but pushes us towards a kind of hyper-realism that pays decreasing dividends.

We would say something about "first-round knockout", but then it's not really a boxing picture. So, we won't.

CineVue

A gritty urban thriller which, whilst packing a punch, misses its target once too often.

Rated: 2/5

Radio Times

It's so mired in overwrought melodrama that, while it packs a few punches, it fails to deliver the knockout.

Peter Mullan adds gruff authority and class but there is not much else to commend this effort from writer/director/producer Dan Turner.

Rated: 2/5
