"Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler are charismatic with the right material, but that right material eludes them in this bland, rudderless romantic comedy."

"The Unborn is a mishmash of half-formed ideas more asinine and exploitative than frightening. At least the title is accurate; this junk is stillborn all the way."

"A mostly spellbinding drama that may not be the spectacular achievement of Shyamalan's last film, but why does it — or should it — have to be?"

"A big-hearted movie that delights in playing with the conventions of superhero pictures. In the same week when the insulting Bratz is also opening, it's a comparative godsend."

"Looking like a low-rent, fraction-of-the-cost cousin to the previous two efforts, the franchise's latest (and hopefully last) entry is muddy-looking, undistinguished, and frustratingly minimal in scope."
