"an impressively noirish moral fable that, for all its bleakness, offers ample rewards to those willing to take a chance on it."  Eye for Film  Anton Bitel

8/10
"While Hostel reeked of xenophobia, 13 notes that often the boogeymen are in our own backyards, and that most are within a few paychecks of falling prey to them."  Freeze Dried Movies  Brian Juergens

3.5/5
"the most artsy spin on The Most Dangerous Game ever plunked down on the screen."  Filmcritic.com  Chris Cabin

"'13' has no facile moralizing or preachiness, and that objectivity -- reinforced by daring technique -- makes for an absorbing film."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Donald J. Levit

"If you have ever been tempted to swipe a dead man's train ticket and identity to see where it all might lead, this movie will cure you in a hurry."  In the Dark  Jonathan F. Richards

3.5/5
"click for full review [Greek]"  Movies for the Masses  Joseph Proimakis

B+
"...a stylish, bleak film noir where men either have little hope or so much money it has perverted their souls."  Reeling Reviews  Laura Clifford

3/4
"An icy plunge into the dark depths of the human mind."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

2/4
"Aspires to the heights of a Jean-Pierre Melville or Fritz Lang but proves to be more along the mediocre lines of an M. Night Shyamalan."  Slant Magazine  Nick Schager

B+
"...a film noir look reminiscent of the 1940's but with an excitement that is thoroughly new millennium"  Reeling Reviews  Robin Clifford

8/10
"A taught thriller all the better for somber and distraught grayscale photography"  Monsters and Critics  Ron Wilkinson

4/5
"...For sure, you won't be able to stop watching."  Film Threat  Rory L. Aronsky

"13 Tzameti does suffer from a weak and even lazy conclusion, but that doesn't stop 90 minutes that come before it. This truly is deserving of being unforgettable."  Calgary Movies  Ryan Cracknell

"Gela Babluani creates tension with a stripped-down style and an unflinching camera and drives the film with a crisp pace that feels both out-of-control and achingly protracted."  GreenCine  Sean Axmaker

"Click here to see review"  Wolf Entertainment Guide  William Wolf
