Hunter Killer Reviews
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
It's less a submarine picture and more a noisy, oddly structured mashup of Russian military coup, Navy SEALs rescue operation and Gerard Butler's ability to clench his jaw three clicks past the setting "fully clenched."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
Hunter Killer... won't win any awards for acting or writing but generates suspense when it needs to and tells an engrossing Tall Tale.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
An overlong, very silly movie that's still sort of watchable, with Butler as its unlikely center of gravity.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
All the actors are sunk by playing caricatures prone to spitting out leaden, often unintentionally humorous dialogue.
RogerEbert.com
Monica Castillo
Butler's performance-or lack thereof-keeps Hunter Killer from breaking any ground in the field of war movies.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
The film's second half kicks into gear and plays out like a moderately efficient popcorn thrill ride, even if it's not on the level of sub thrillers like "Crimson Tide" or "The Hunt for Red October."
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
While 'Hunter Killer" bounces between serious and silly, it never quite finds a suitable place to land.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
The plot has a lot of moving parts, but Marsh fits them together adroitly to deliver a thriller that's consistently exciting and thoroughly preposterous.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
Generic big-screen genre-fiction. Cliched but watchable.

[You'll] find more enjoyment watching a plastic yellow submarine sink to the bottom of a bathtub than watching this film.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Glenn Kenny
Storytelling is both serviceable and refreshingly non-reliant on the chaotic cutting that distinguishes so much contemporary action fare.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
There's some impressive action and a storyline that, let's face it, is no more outlandish than current headlines and much more satisfying.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
It's nice to spend a couple of hours in a fictional world where we don't have to worry about the American president doing something ruinously idiotic and evil. It plays like a nostalgic fairy tale.
TheWrap
Elizabeth Weitzman
You know those DVDs that sit in a giant Wal-Mart bin? The kinds of movies usually dumped unceremoniously into theaters in January, and maybe if you're going stir-crazy you take a chance and find yourself happily surprised? Hunter Killer is one of those.
Associated Press
Lindsey Bahr
It is bombastic and garish, ridden with clichés, preposterous politics and diplomacy, and frenetic, video game energy. And it so often so unintentionally silly that it's actually kind of a fun watch.
Chicago Reader
Leah Pickett
The film is largely uncontroversial, save for a climax that could double as an advertisement for the Navy and America itself.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
However nutty its geopolitics, "Hunter Killer" does its job as popcorn thriller with brisk efficiency.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
The movie is overlong, at times confusing, and it's self-important, with a soundtrack that keeps telling us we feel things that we don't. Still, if you like this kind of movie, it's not a bad use of two hours...
Slant Magazine
Derek Smith
The film is a second-rate airport thriller that makes The Hunt for Red October seem like nonfiction by comparison.
Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Sinks to the bottom.
