"The film’s glorification of auto theft is a bit disturbing."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Betty Jo Tucker

1/4
"As uninspired as it is insulting"  Film Freak Central  Bill Chambers

2.5/5
"A plot so insanely stupid it can only mean one thing: You are watching a Jerry Bruckheimer movie."  Filmcritic.com  Christopher Null

"This latest Jerry Bruckheimer actioner takes pretty much forever to get to its wholly predictable and humdrum finale."  Philadelphia City Paper  Cynthia Fuchs

1.5/4
"See the first film if you haven’t already. The original’s low-budget may not promise much, but at least the filmmakers were enthused about pulling together elaborate chase sequences instead of letting the money talk."  Cinemaphile.org  David Keyes

3/4
"...entertaining but senseless..."  Reel Film Reviews  David Nusair

D
"I should have been so lucky to have been gone from the theater in 60 seconds."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

1.5/4
"The underwhelming finale simply proved what I had increasingly been realizing throughout, which is that there was no reason for Gone in 60 Seconds to be made at all."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Dustin Putman

C
"If you're a teen-age boy, you'll love Gone in 60 Seconds, because I think it must have been your peers who made the movie."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

8/10
"Certainly a fun summer popcorn movie."  eFilmCritic.com  Erik Childress

C
"Maybe more Angelina Jolie would have helped."  Film Blather  Eugene Novikov

D+
"A wafer-thin contrivance, with nothing more on its mind than providing an adrenaline rush to the intellectually undemanding."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

C
"60 seconds is exactly how long the endorphin thrills of this car-stealing flick last once outside the theatre."  Mixed Reviews  Gabriel Shanks

2/4
"Like all Jerry Bruckheimer films, Gone In 60 Seconds has a slick look but no soul."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

2/4
"A sleek, polished production of filmmaking-by-committee, where nothing is left to chance: big stars, big production values, snazzy cinematography, a predictable climax."  Q Network Film Desk  James Kendrick

2.5/4
"No prizes will be handed out come year end, but this fix will sufficiently satisfy adrenaline-seekers until the next shot rolls around."  Palo Alto Weekly  Jeanne Aufmuth

"Not as good or as much fun as it could and should have been."  Screen It!  Jim Judy

6/10
"A below-par Bruckheimer film which does satisfy with a couple of cool chase scenes, a semi-interesting tale and car-stealing scenarios, but ultimately doesn't blow you away with anything."  JoBlo's Movie Emporium  JoBlo

1/4
"So clumsy is the film that while our 'heroes' are 'boosting' their 50 cars in 24 hours, the audience never has a clue how many they have successfully stolen."  Big Picture Big Sound  Joe Lozito

5/10
"Like it or not, it glorifies stealing cars. Beyond the thefts, there's not much going on."  DVDTown.com  John J. Puccio

"Despite its many flaws, Seconds is still worth the price of admission."  Planet Sick-Boy  Jon Popick

2/4
"Lo único positivo de la misma son los 60 segundos previos en los que el espectador decide mejor entrar a ver otra película"  Moviola  Jorge Avila Andrade

5/5
"Remember, it's Summer. Don't go there expecting to see an Oscar-winning performance..."  3BlackChicks Review  Kamal 'The Diva' Larsuel

4/5
"This is another one of those films that fits into the “it is what it is” category, only it’s better than that. It is what it is and does it really, really well."  7M Pictures  Kevin Carr

2.5/4
"An enjoyable enough old fashioned romp."  Montreal Film Journal  Kevin N. Laforest

6/10
"The epitome of filmmaking by the manual."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

"Too bad that when you peel away the flashy cars, the sharp-dressed cast and the squealing brakes, there's no movie underneath."  Film Journal International  Maitland McDonagh

3/10
"And I thought Mission: Impossible 2 was boring."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

2/4
"The surface thrills that it does deliver aren't quite enough."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Michael Dequina

2/5
"Uma produção repleta de obviedades."  Cinema em Cena  Pablo Villaca

2.5/5
"It collapses into a heap of ridiculously over-the-top stunts, movie cliches and surprisingly sappy dialog."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

4/5
"Comfortably cheesy -- a real beer-and-pizza movie."  eFilmCritic.com  Rob Gonsalves

D+
"As a movie in general, Gone in 60 Seconds is garbage. As a joy buzzer, it's suffering from permanent brownout"  Flipside Movie Emporium  Rob Vaux

2.5/4
"This is like bumper cars for grown ups."  Laramie Movie Scope  Robert Roten

C+
"It's fun for a couple of hours and provides the requisite eye candy, but that's about all."  Reeling Reviews  Robin Clifford

6/10
"Rarely do movies have so little 'movie' in them."  eFilmCritic.com  Scott Weinberg

4/10
"It may push the pedal to the metal for ca r-and-action aficionados but it left me still wondering where my stolen car wound up."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Susan Granger

3/5
