A simple sci-fi horror with just enough scares to keep you interested.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 23, 2011

Apollo 18 is an intriguing, if never enthralling, fusion of period space-flight procedural, conspiracy theory, and monster movie.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Sep 9, 2011

Watching people land on the moon isn't all that interesting or photogenic, especially when we know it's pretend.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 6, 2011

It's 80 minutes of dead air.

| Sep 6, 2011

Boredom sets in long before the last muted shriek. And who cares about the astros? We never get to know them anyway.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 5, 2011

For most horror fans it will be kind of a snooze.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 5, 2011

It's not awful - you just wish they'd made a proper movie out of it.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 5, 2011

Meticulous in its "found" visual details, minorly smart in concept, painfully slow to actually watch and so ridiculous in its big reveal that it almost has to be seen to be believed.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Sep 5, 2011

The source of the creepy events, when it's finally revealed, is profoundly dull, like a forgettable episode of The X-Files or Fringe.

| Original Score: D | Sep 4, 2011

The film takes a startlingly long time to rev up, and even at less than 90 minutes feels thin and at moments like it is playing for time.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 3, 2011

Accomplishes something the world wasn't really crying out for: it recreates the tedium of watching the later Apollo missions.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 3, 2011

Despite stretches of skillfully sustained suspense, Apollo 18 ultimately comes across as little more than a modestly clever stunt.

Full Review | Sep 3, 2011

Make no mistake, Apollo 18 is a *terrible* movie.

| Original Score: F | Sep 2, 2011

Reconfirms that most entries in the "found-footage" horror subgenre should remain lost.

| Sep 2, 2011

Apollo 18 fails to stay with you because, like the cratered satellite on which it's set, it has no atmosphere.

| Original Score: D+ | Sep 2, 2011

This space-set, "found footage" horror flick never lifts off.

| Sep 2, 2011

Has no thrills, no chills, no scares and contains a villain, or several of them, actually, that will turn you to stone -- from boredom.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Sep 2, 2011

Audiences hoping for something in the vein of Paranormal Activity won't be disappointed, although the film can be faulted for sticking too close to a familiar formula.
