What to Know

Critics Consensus

A startlingly inept film, Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever offers overblown, wall-to-wall action without a hint of wit, coherence, style, or originality.

Matt Singer ScreenCrush I'm having a hard time believing the words as I type them but ... it's not that bad. Rated: 4/10 Jan 29, 2019 Full Review Nell Minow Beliefnet An endless barrage of bullets and bazookas Rated: D Oct 9, 2015 Full Review Jocelyn Noveck Associated Press For many viewers, the big question may be not whether Ecks and Sever will get together, or why they are fighting in the first place, but why am I sitting here, anyway? Sep 15, 2014 Full Review William Bibbiani Consequence I guess not every bad movie has a cult following in its future. Some of them are just kinda bad. Sep 20, 2022 Full Review Micheal Compton Bowling Green Daily News If you must see Ecks vs. Sever, just go bang your head against the wall for an hour and a half. It would be the same effect. Nov 15, 2019 Full Review Michael Sragow Baltimore Sun Kaos is so in love with pyrotechnics -- and so arrogant in his assumptions about his audience -- that in the first few minutes, he presents one critical car explosion without explanation, then has his characters discuss another one. Rated: 1/4 Sep 15, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews
