Shuttle Reviews
| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 17, 2011
Boasts a killer premise and better than average acting, so it's all the more disappointing that Anderson proves unable to avoid annoying horror movie pitfalls.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 7, 2009
Immediate frights and long-lasting dread are still not quite enough
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 21, 2009
Hop aboard this Shuttle if you're in the mood for one unsettling ride.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 2, 2009
The characters are aggressive and mostly smart, the villain is fearsome and hateful, and the premise ('An airport shuttle ride descends into darkness') is brilliantly simple.
| Original Score: B+ | Mar 30, 2009
Well conceived thriller, Shuttle takes the familiar situation and develops it into terrifying ordeal
| Mar 21, 2009
Shuttle could have worked but it is so bogged down with clichés and predictable twists that it comes apart at its illogical seams.
| Mar 19, 2009
When the payoff finally arrives, it seems tasteless not just because of its topicality, but because the shock feels unearned.
Full Review | Original Score: C | Mar 19, 2009
There is no release for the audience, no 'entertainment,' not even much action excitement. Just a remorseless march into the dark.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 19, 2009
A slightly prosaic and tedious, but mostly chilly and intense ride.
| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Mar 15, 2009
Shuttle mostly exists, in the words of Alfred Hitchcock, to 'put the audience through it,' but it leaves you in a very different place than where it started and with remarkable economy of effort.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 12, 2009
Instead of suspense, we get frustration at the stupidity of the characters.
| Original Score: C | Mar 12, 2009
Shuttle is a grim and twisted exercise in high-stress terror that falls just short of the torture-porn subgenre.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 12, 2009
a pile of stinking turpitude
Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 11, 2009
One hell of a terrifying ride ...
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Mar 11, 2009
Solid, effective and perfect for date night.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 6, 2009
If you step aboard Shuttle, be prepared for one heck of a ride filled with suspense, action and ever-escalating terror. With this ingenious thriller, Edward Anderson, who wrote the heist flick Flawless, makes an audacious directorial debut.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Mar 6, 2009
Nasty and dumb, a lot like Hostel without the extreme torture and gore.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 5, 2009
Next time, spring for a cab.
| Mar 5, 2009
A decently twisty indie thriller about hostages lured aboard an airport minivan whose destination is nowhere pleasant.
