(1 - 29) of 29 OFCS Rating: 3% Rotten Page   1   1.5/4 "It shouldn't be difficult to remake a mediocre movie."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   A. J. Hakari 5/10 "A flat out mess."   Modamag.com   Brian Orndorf "It's happy to indulge in exactly the groveling-for-ratings violent antics that it pretends to rebuke."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 0/4 "...without a doubt the single most atrocious and disgraceful major studio release of the new millennium."   Cinemaphile.org   David Keyes 2/4 "...tries to work in some high and mighty social commentary, and this is where it fails completely."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair 0.5/4 "About as enjoyable, I would imagine, as searching for a quarter in a giant pile of elephant feces...positively dreadful."   DustinPutman.com   Dustin Putman 2.5/4 "The uneven Rollberball still feels like the dopiest, punchiest studio satire since Starship Troopers."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez F "It is that rare combination of bad writing, bad direction and bad acting -- the trifecta of badness."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider D+ "Near the top of the list of Questions I'd Like Answered is why John McTiernan has forsaken us."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov 1/4 "This is a terrible big-budget fiasco with a go nowhere plot and terrible cast."   Cinema Crazed   Felix Vasquez Jr. 1/4 "Who's in the mood to play games with Rollerball, an insipid and excitable mindless sports fantasy that rolls over your cinematic senses in incomplete, boisterous fashion?"   Movie Eye   Frank Ochieng F "Disjointed, puerile and ugly-looking to boot...a visual, as well as a narrative, wreck."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 1/4 "Like a gerbil exercising in a wheel, this movie spins and spins, generating a lot of action and noise, but getting absolutely nowhere."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 1.5/4 "This remake exists for no clear reason at all. It doesn’t even make sense and the action is dull and repetitive."   Sci-Fi Movie Page   James O'Ehley 1/5 "A mix of velocity and idiocy, this ruinous remake lacks the brawn -- and the brains -- of the 1970s original."   Netflix   James Rocchi .5/5 "Rollerball is cinematically baffling: blurred colorful images spliced together in a mad collage."   ToxicUniverse.com   Jeremiah Kipp 2/10 "Little here is gripping, absorbing or entertaining, particularly due to the rapid fire delivery of footage and edits that prevent the viewer from following or getting into the game action."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 3/10 "This flick feels like a turd that nobody ever bothered to clean off the floor and just ended up getting stinkier and stinkier and stinkier."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 2/10 "For its 100 minutes running time, you'll wait in vain for a movie to happen."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio 1.5/4 "Habrá que darle a McTiernan el beneficio de la duda y esperar hasta su siguiente película, porque esta debe ser enlatada y no ser exhibida nunca más."   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 5/10 "Esta patetica nueva versión no alcanza a la de 1975. La visión futurista llega a caer en lo kitch y el trasfondo social no termina por cuajar."   Cinenganos   Luis Martinez 0.5/4 "An insultingly bad movie, and even the flashiest, most distracting sound and visual gimmicks cannot hide this fact."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik 1/4 "Rollerball is just plain bad."   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes "When the trailers for the film tell you... the big, astonishing twist, you end up spending the first 45 minutes of the movie wondering when the damn movie is going to start."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 1/5 "How this otherwise talented crew managed to make a film that feels this amateurishly low-budget is anyone's guess."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline D "... a silly, stupid, incoherent mess."   Seattle Post-Intelligencer   Sean Axmaker 0.5/4 "The original wasn't a good movie but this remake makes it look like a masterpiece!"   sbs.is   Stefan Birgir Stefansson 2/10 "It's incomprehensible."   www.susangranger.com   Susan Granger 0.5/4 "What it might look like if Vince McMahon were to direct "Starlight Express" (with all the stage blood, testosterone, and suck such a union implies)."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw  (1 - 29) of 29 OFCS Rating: 3% Rotten Page   1
