Unhinged Reviews
the choice to only vaguely explain his rage undoes either the unexplainable terror or give the character some nuance.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 4, 2024
Road rage gets a new and definitive definition.
| Dec 26, 2022
Screenwriter Carl Ellsworth and director Derrick Borte leave you gasping in a brutal thriller with a cynical view of the rage festering in all of us.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 23, 2022
Stay for Crowe, who gives a performance in Unhinged that’s like a deranged rhino, or leave for the anemic plot that stands for nothing.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Sep 2, 2022
Unhinged's story may seem simple and straightforward, but this raucous road rage thriller still terrifies thanks to Russell Crowe's chilling commitment in the lead role.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 1, 2022
“Unhinged” is a simple yet satisfying thriller that by the end turns into full-on maniacal horror.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 21, 2022
Mostly awful, but it somehow peaks into something sublimely awful by the third act.
| Original Score: C- | Aug 10, 2021
Russell Crowe action flick has no deep meaning, it's just tense, fast entertainment that doesn't outstay its welcome for a lean 93 minutes.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 18, 2021
Whoa, this was a lot more and intense than I had expected it to be. This is definitely one of Russell Crowe's most nerve-wracking and anxiety-inducing performances
| Original Score: 8.9/10 | May 26, 2021
As a study of an emasculated man seeking revenge it brings to mind Falling Down, Michael Douglas' 1993 black comedy, except Unhinged is all darkness and no comedy.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 29, 2021
If there's an underlying message other than 'don't be rude to other drivers because they might be having a worse day than you,' I missed it.

An honest and straightforward entertainment, as violent as viciously fun.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Jan 12, 2021
It's just a shame the end product feels so middle of the road, something fun to watch in the moment but ultimately forgettable

The film's gaze skillfully mixes contextual projection... and knows how to avoid demagoguery no matter how well it embraces the spectacle. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 4, 2021
A quick, fun little nail-biter.
| Original Score: 6/10 | Dec 12, 2020
As long as it doesn't even pretend to have thoughts in its ugly little head, it's reasonably okay at being disreputable... Unfortunately, it tries to think rather too often.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 27, 2020
No one shows anger boiling in the stomach quite like Crowe, who finds a way to kick-start this material - vicious trash, at a glance - by touring us around a mindset that's impressively credible in the circumstances.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 22, 2020
A slasher movie on wheels. It ain't for the squeamish.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 21, 2020
This trashy anxiety-fest completely delivers upon what little it promises.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 17, 2020
The bones of an enjoyable thriller are here. But there's no meat on them.
| Original Score: 4/10 | Nov 13, 2020
