(1 - 32) of 32 OFCS Rating: 31% Rotten Page   1   C "Although it has some fun effects and trademark Cage zingers, Next can't overcome just how goofy, and even uninteresting, it is."   FromTheBalcony   Bill Clark B "For better or worse, Next always has its eye on a perky pace and the occasional bubble-gum snap of amusement."   OhmyNews.com   Brian Orndorf "The film doesn't try to explain or rationalize its essential trick, but drops you rather perfunctorily into Cris' multiple dilemmas."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 1/5 "Next is a howler of a movie, the most entertainingly awful flick in quite some time."   eFilmCritic.com   David Cornelius 2.5/4 "Thoroughly ridiculous yet basically entertaining..."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair C- "A watchable but one hell of a dumb hybrid action and supernatural thriller."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 2/4 "Slickly produced but much ado about nothing, Next keeps one's interest, only to laugh in your face for caring."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman 2.5/4 "After the sleekly aggressive audio-visual assault of Déjà Vu, Next's B-movie-ness is almost charming."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez B- "Primarily just a fun, mind-bending story, not too brainy but not too stupid, either."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider D "An extremely simple-minded present-day chase movie...blown to smithereens by plot holes the size of the majestic mountain canyons where some of the action is set."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 2.5/4 "The film fails to play by a consistent set of rules and, while it's possible to justify that endgame twist, that doesn't mean it's a good idea. Some viewers will feel cheated by what Next does, and it's hard to blame them."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli "Someone that can change the future like Cage does here is a bit like Superman, but without any Kryptonite . . ."   Sci-Fi Movie Page   James O'Ehley 5/10 "Diverting enough, and actually might've passed well as logic-less entertainment if not for the ending."   Window to the Movies   Jeffrey Chen 4/10 "Everything that happens is preposterous, and the filmmakers make no attempt to help us forget it."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio 2.5/4 "El vidente es una de esas películas que se pueden ver sin problemas, pues es bastante entretenida, pero que al final deja el sentimiento de que al espectador se le quiso tomar el pelo."   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 1.5/5 "If I could look into the future, I wouldn't have seen this movie at all."   Film School Rejects   Kevin Carr C "...can't be totally written off because Cage is actually good in this role and he and Jessica Biel have the type of chemistry that make the romance worth rooting for."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 2.5/4 "Until its trigger-happy, metaphysically-impossible-to-decipher, and anticlimactic copout of an ending, the movie is a successful entertainment -- albeit a minor, disposable, and completely forgettable one."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik D+ "Next plays like the most boring episode ever of 24, with a little extrasensory flavor tossed in for good measure."   Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema   Mark Pfeiffer "There are lots of crimes a movie can commit -- being boring, being nonsensical, being implausible, being irrelevant -- but it's the rare movie that can commit all of them in the space of 90 minutes."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson C ""What about intel?" someone asks. "We don't need it--we have HIM." You don't need to be Cage to forsee we're in for a lot of bang bang and the obligatory shooting of the black secondary character is moments away."   Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies   Nell Minow C+ "It's debatable whether Cage's supernatural ability is any more interesting than his strange coiffure."   Lessons of Darkness   Nick Schager 2.5/5 "It’s noisy, nonsensical, and will fade from your consciousness even before you make it out of the theater lobby, but it’s entertaining enough, and Tamahori throws us a few curve balls to keep things interesting."   Film Threat   Pete Vonder Haar 3/5 "Establishes has a smart premise before it turns into another big, dumb action movie."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline 4/5 "Its conceptual wit and its merciful brevity help it go down easy."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves C "It just has too much in its corner to ignore such depressing mediocrity."   Flipside Movie Emporium   Rob Vaux C+ "Not a bad film if you can overlook the basic silliness of the plot."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B "If you are looking for an interesting, imaginative movie diversion before the summer blockbuster flood from Hollywood, you might just want to check out Next."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 3/5 "Straddles a fence between adequately clever and surprisingly stupid ... but most of it is still fun anyway."   FEARnet   Scott Weinberg "It doesn't have the momentum, the quick-wittedness, to keep us wondering what's going to happen next."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek 3/10 "Implausible and predictable - it's a silly seer-tale. Consider this your two-minute warning."   www.susangranger.com   Susan Granger 1/10 "A truly great bad film, one for future generations to ponder and consider and then turn away."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton  (1 - 32) of 32 OFCS Rating: 31% Rotten Page   1
