Two rules: don't show me your monster and don't explain it, because whatever you say is going to be silly. They broke both rules.

It's a tough balance to strike and I don't think the sci-fi part works as well as [the romance]. The two [actors] have a lot of chemistry and look great together, the film looks great, and the score is great.

All in all, a solid action adventure that spins a new take on the forbidden romance setup. Levi taking the leap to go see a woman he just met does unleash chaos, but would you resist the urge to dive headfirst over a large canyon for love?

Love in the time of <i>Cordyceps</i>.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 5, 2025

The Gorge is essentially cut scenes from every World War II zombie video game you've ever seen. It has the same basic plotting, and is wholly derivative in its visuals and world building.

| Original Score: C- | Apr 4, 2025

An intriguing genre hybrid with compelling conspiracy concepts unfortunately suffocates beneath derivative flourishes, video game aesthetics and poorly structured characterizations. But Sigourney Weaver looks fantastic.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 20, 2025

Too absurd to take seriously.

| Original Score: B- | Mar 9, 2025

For the most part, The Gorge is enjoyable, a very silly idea executed very well.

| Mar 7, 2025

Sets up an intriguing premise but fails to deliver on its potential, especially in its second half

| Original Score: 4/10 | Mar 6, 2025

A fun idea that starts strong, loses its commitment in the middle and ends with an uninteresting, unmemorable whimper.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Mar 4, 2025

The Grorge has its glitches, but overall, it provides plenty of action/horror fun.

| Original Score: B | Mar 3, 2025

The special effects are quite good, but “The Gorge” doesn’t scale the goofy heights in a rollercoaster ride way that it thinks it does, stalling out with a hackneyed ending that makes you shrug your shoulders and want to move on to something better.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 3, 2025

As an exercise in Lovecraftian horror, it’s a hoot. [It] gradually doles out morsels of tangible information, but it weaponizes our curiosity and anxieties of the unknown for longer than one might reasonably expect.

While the plot isn't particularly innovative and some of the CGI could have been polished further, the well-developed chemistry between Teller and Taylor-Joy keeps the story engaging.

| Feb 28, 2025

Silly premise with only two attractive, engaging stars.

| Feb 27, 2025

It may be lean on story, but its character work sets it apart from other direct to streaming films like this feel like a bloated CGI mess.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Feb 25, 2025

Perhaps it should be renamed "The Bog" as it gets mired down in too much setup for what is ultimately a paint by numbers action film that feels like it would've been better served as the tutorial level of a video game (with no shade to video games).

| Original Score: 2.8/5 | Feb 25, 2025

Credit must be given to [Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller], as they make these shared moments between their characters so heartwarmingly beautiful. [...] We want them to survive and find a way to be with each other, no matter what it takes.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 25, 2025

The Gorge could have been a completely predictable Sci-Fi thriller, and at times it is, but the romance throughline makes it unique.

| Feb 24, 2025

Had The Gorge stuck more strictly to the romance, it would overall be a much better film. Unfortunately, once Levi and Drasa become physically intimate, the movie pivots to a strict action-thriller and becomes almost distressingly predictable.
