"Miike's return to the horror genre is a slicker and less original affair than
Audition
, but also sharply dissects the J-horror phenomenon even as it scares the hell out of you."
Channel 4 Film
Anton Bitel
4/10
"We slog through several seemingly endless scenes of teenage girls checking their voicemail while we peer at them from around corners. Yes, it is as boring as it sounds."
Bloody Disgusting
Brian Juergens
3/5
"There is very little in
One Missed Call
that we have not seen before. And yet it works."
eFilmCritic.com
David Cornelius
"Relies on scare tactics not very well done."

"One missed opportunity to bring something new to a tired genre."

Edward Havens
4/5
"A great new Asian horror movie and the ultimate proof that Miike can do anything."
Film Threat
Jeremy Knox
"It's not deep, it's not original and more than anything else, it reminded me of an Asian take on Final Destination for some reason. Still, it's an entertaining flick."
Monsters At Play
Lawrence P. Raffel
B-
"Miike reins in his anything goes impulses...but still smuggles in his sense of humor and flair for the grotesque, often at the same time."
Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema
Mark Pfeiffer
1.5/4
"A mainstream J-horror flick that dutifully regurgitates the apparitions, aesthetic, and themes of its genre predecessors."
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
2.5/5
"It'd feel a whole lot creepier if it weren't exactly like that haunted videotape flick."
