(1 - 29) of 29 OFCS Rating: 7% Rotten Page   1   1/5 "Should have been aborted."   Cut Print Review   Anders Wotzke 1/5 "The Unborn is like a scary movie sentence without the necessary linking verbs. It's all genre gears and no motivational motor."   PopMatters   Bill Gibron 2/5 "There is a senseless scare every 5-7 minutes. Now, after one or two you start to get the giggles but after the third or fourth false scare you begin to Laugh Out Loud."   CinemaBlend.com   Brian Holcomb D- "After three feature films of discouraging quality, Goyer suits up in a beret and jodhpurs again for The Unborn, which holds the miserable distinction of being the most dreadful film he's fashioned to date."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf 1/5 "has the psychological weight and perversity of a mildly racy episode of Touched by an Angel"   Filmcritic.com   Chris Cabin C- "Gary Oldman steals what there is to take from his few scenes, but a nonsensical B-movie like "The Unborn" is beneath is skills as an actor."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey 2/4 "...boasts few attributes designed to initially capture the viewer's interest..."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair C "A cheesy low-rent supernatural thriller that vainly tries to introduce some gravitas by dropping references to the Kabbalah."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 1/4 "The Unborn is a mishmash of half-formed ideas more asinine and exploitative than frightening. At least the title is accurate; this junk is stillborn all the way."   DustinPutman.com   Dustin Putman D "At last we are making crappy horror films entirely on our own, without having to rip them off from Japan! U-S-A! U-S-A!"   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider C- "Exactly what you'd expect from the combination of its release date, genre, and MPAA rating"   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov D- "Shouldn't have been brought to term."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 1/4 "This is where many a horror movie falls and never again rises: too much exposition."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 1.5/4 "both silly and nonsensical"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 3/5 "Possession tale is low on blood, but high on scares."   Common Sense Media   James Rocchi "Parental Content Review"   Screen It!   Jim Judy 1/4 "What The Unborn represents manages to be a thousand times more disturbing than anything Goyer captured with his pen or camera"   Bangitout.com   Jordan Hiller 2/5 "Even for the run-of-the-mill, first of the year horror flick, The Unborn is pretty much a miscarriage."   7M Pictures   Kevin Carr C- "At least I got to see Gary Oldman, as Rabbi Sendak, blow the sacred animal horn."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford "A pretty young woman who looks especially fetching in her underwear is plagued by increasingly horrible dreams...at least, she thinks they're dreams until her whole life goes to hell. Some effective chills amidst the silliness."   Film Journal International   Maitland McDonagh "It's hilarious, and it's sort of awesome, too, in that no-they-didn't kind of way..."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 1/4 "Falls very much line with early-year schlock."   TheMovieReport.com   Michael Dequina 1/5 "This is one film that shouldn't have been birthed. No, in fact, it should have been aborted."   Film Threat   Michael Ferraro 2/4 "The year is only a week old and already the cinema gods have bestowed upon us a candidate for most awesome catchword of the year: Jumby!"   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 1.5/5 "This orgy of crazed effects, cheap scares and jittery suspense never remotely frightens us"   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline D+ "The entire premise of The Unborn seems based on "Boo! Gotcha" moments, which are initially quite effective but soon wear out their welcome."   Mania.com   Rob Vaux 1.5/5 "This stuff is scary in the same way that twelve random ingredients from your kitchen is soup."   FEARnet   Scott Weinberg "...comes across like a Jewish version of The Exorcist, mixed with a touch of Rosemary's Baby by way of The Omen."   Cinefantastique   Steve Biodrowski 3/10 "The film's story is not so much plagued by plot holes as it is constructed out of them, not unlike an especially lacy variety of Swiss cheese."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton  (1 - 29) of 29 OFCS Rating: 7% Rotten Page   1
