5/10
"This is a forgettable picture, with the sad fact that with a little more effort and a veteran’s hand, this film could’ve easily been a more compelling distraction."

Brian Orndorf
"Slow in a strange way -- without energy, without imagination, without urgency."
PopMatters
Cynthia Fuchs
.5/4
"Horrendously amateurish filmmaking that is plainly dull and visually ugly when it isn't incomprehensible."

"Even by dumb action-movie standards,
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever
is a dumb action movie."

1.5/4
"Kaosayananda’s approach to this thunderous and over-indulgent stylish stinker is quite simplistic: load up on excessive explosions that’s meant to give a personality to a straining and exceedingly moronic martial arts motion picture."

"A shambles of a movie--visually unattractive, unbearably loud and utterly silly...its hilarity is completely unintentional."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
2/4
"This grim, joyless motion picture is anything but fun. It's a chore to sit through, with all the blazing, noisy pyrotechnics proving unable to lighten the mood."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
2/5
"Spy-vs.-spy action flick with Antonio Banderas and Lucy Liu never comes together."
Netflix
James Rocchi
4/10
"By the time the show ended I was laughing pretty hard just thinking about how the movie made no sense while it was trying to be so serious."

"The film is bad on just about every level."

3/10
"Gives new meaning to the word incoherent and provides as much excitement as my big ass."

3/10
"You'll have to be a cryptologist to figure out who's working for whom, and you'll have to boast the patience of Job to care."

John J. Puccio
3/10
"One of the worst action films of the year."
Planet Sick-Boy
Jon Popick
2/5
"This movie is bad enough to make you want to go ballistic on Hollywood."

"If only Maxwell Smart had been here to foil KAOS yet again - avoid at all costs"
Cinerina
Karina Montgomery
1.5/4
"At every opportunity to do something clever, the film goes right over the edge and kills every sense of believability... all you have left is a no-surprise series of explosions and violence while Banderas looks like he's not trying to laugh at how bad it"
MovieCrypt.com
Kevin A. Ranson
1.5/4
"For all the sundered families, bereaved mothers and mourning spouses, there's not a shred of genuine feeling in the entire film."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
1/4
"The title - insipid as it is - is more interesting than anything that actually appears on screen."
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
2/5
"More video game than movie, though video games have more interesting characters."

"You'll have more fun setting fire to yourself in the parking lot. You'll be more entertained getting hit by a bus."

"One of the worst films of 2002."
Laramie Movie Scope

"The story would qualify as your basic spy opera... if there was any feeling to it, but the film has no more engagement than a big-screen video game"
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Sean Axmaker
1/5
"Pay good money to see
Ballistic: Ecks Vs. Sever
and you have nobody but yourself to blame."

"It's dreadful!"

0/4
"It hopes to obscure its awfulness with its volume and, failing that, it hopes to dress up its stupidity with backlit shots of a woman communing with a captive manatee."
