(1 - 23) of 23 OFCS Rating: 57% Rotten Page   1   2/4 "For many viewers, Quarantine is more likely to stir up a nasty headache instead of any feelings of fear or dread."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   A. J. Hakari 3/5 "a solid, suspense-filled 90 minutes"   Filmcritic.com   Bill Gibron 2/5 "Real no frills filmmaking. Anything that gets in the way of the main idea is stripped to the bone. This includes certain niceties like character, humor, and even story."   CinemaBlend.com   Brian Holcomb D+ "Quarantine is the unavoidable American replica, only this version has ingested a bottle of idiot pills and washed it all down with a full glass of directorial incompetence."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf 3/4 "...one could surely do far worse as far as horror remakes go."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair 3/4 "If a remake must be made in lieu of original thoughts and ideas, one could do far, far worse. Quarantine is the real deal--a primal, uncompromising vision of insanity run amok."   DustinPutman.com   Dustin Putman B+ "Disregarding its Xeroxed pedigree, it's easily one of the best American horror films of the year."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 2/4 "My suggestion is to see the original first and then skip this one altogether..."   Cinema Crazed   Felix Vasquez Jr. C- "Grows increasingly repetitious and tedious as the same cinematic tricks are played over and over...the effect is suffocating rather than enjoyably spooky."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek B+ "A bit dim-witted, [but] what it lacks in intellectualism it makes up for in formal moxie..."   Cinepinion   Henry Stewart 2/4 "Quarantine fails to correct some of the problems evident in its predecessor while also incorporating a few defects of its own."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli "Actress Jennifer Carpenter of Exorcism of Emily Rose fame surely deserves some kind of award for giving the most hysterical over-the-top performance in a horror movie since Marilyn Burns in the original 1974 Texas Chain Saw Massacre."   Sci-Fi Movie Page   James O'Ehley 1.5/4.0 "Underdeveloped and predictable, there is little compelling about the film other than the premise and a few of the kills."   MovieCrypt.com   Kevin A. Ranson A- "Horror movie fans can enjoy the visceral experience. The core purpose %u2013 to make people jump out of their seats %u2013 is executed with intense precision."   Film School Rejects   Kevin Carr "A respectable, if uninspired, adaptation of... [REC], a Blair Witch-style variation on zombie movie cliches that might seem fresher had it not opened after veteran George Romero's grimly pared-down Diary of the Dead."   Miss FlickChick   Maitland McDonagh 3/5 "Quarantine isn't an awful film--just an unnecessary one. It may well be the most pointless remake since Gus Van Sant's Psycho"   Mike Bracken's Horror Films   Mike Bracken B- "Not as frightening as it should be, but still better than the average Hollywood scare-a-thon."   Lessons of Darkness   Nick Schager 3.5/5 "Rather too hysterical to be coherent, but it's still jittery and thoroughly unnerving"   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline 2/5 "A rote reproduction of a more effective film."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves 2/4 "An affair that aims low and succeeds well in such."   Slant Magazine   Rob Humanick 3.5/5 "Considering how worthless most horror remakes are, the fact that this "carbon copy quickie" actually works is fairly impressive."   FEARnet   Scott Weinberg 6/10 "Despite Quarantine's theft from nearly every film in the subgenre, there are parts of the film that just plain work, no matter how much it doesn't seem like they should."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton 3/4 "If you are looking for a film that will scare the wits out of you, even briefly, you can't wrong from seeing this one."   BlackFilm.com   Wilson Morales  (1 - 23) of 23 OFCS Rating: 57% Rotten Page   1
