Speed Reviews
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
Believe it or not, the most exciting movie of the year takes place mainly in an elevator, on a city bus and on a train car.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
De Bont has assembled it with masterly precision. And Speed looks terrific. There are breathtaking aerial shots, mind-boggling stunts, and camera positioning that you just don't expect. It's a rocketing eyeful.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
Just when you think Speed is over, it takes you on a new high.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
The story is a starting gun, a reason to roll out the high-tech action movie chase and demolition experts. It's gaudy action shtick, and it's fitting that the last stop is at Hollywood Boulevard.
Seattle Times
Jeff Shannon
A riotously enjoyable locomotive of action, Speed is driven by a premise of such crystalline purity that its ridiculousness becomes part of the fun.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
We've seen this done before, but seldom so well, or at such a high pitch of energy.
Entertainment Weekly
Ty Burr
Speed is both a reminder of the pleasures of well-done mindlessness and graceful evidence that Hollywood's newest generation of talent can play the box office game if and when it wants to.
Hollywood Reporter
David Hunter
There should be traffic jams at the box office as Fox picks up many busloads of riders for its fast and furiously entertaining thriller Speed.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Action directing is a put-up-or-shut-up game, a skill that can't be faked or finessed; even a 10-year-old can tell if you've got it or not. And on the evidence of the invigorating Speed, Jan De Bont has definitely got it.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
The deft arabesques of cinematographer Andrzej Bartkowiak juice up the suspense, and if you're not too put off by the sheer ridiculousness of the story you won't be bored.
New Yorker
Anthony Lane
The result is clean, delirious, and, yes, speedy -- the best big-vehicle-in-peril movie since Clouzot's The Wages of Fear.
TIME Magazine
Richard Schickel
Talk about simple. But the film's sheer cut-to-the-chase straightfowardness is part of its appeal.
Variety
Todd McCarthy
Athough it hits any number of gaping credibility potholes on its careening journey around Los Angeles, Speed delivers the goods as a non-stop actioner that scarcely pauses to take a breath.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
Cleverer action films (Die Hard II and The Fugitive, for instance) deliver more sardonic intelligence, but this one still gets the job done.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
The smart and sassy Bullock is a knockout. She makes us believe the impossible things Annie is doing and, better, makes us care.
Newsweek
David Ansen
Relentless without being overbearing, this is one likely blockbuster that doesn't feel too big for its britches. It's a friendly juggernaut.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
The plot becomes so overextended, as Reeves and Hopper wage their endless public transportation battle, even the hardest Die-Harders will consider leaping off way before the final stop.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
Undeniably, the picture now and again supplies that edge-of-the-seat sensation; yet, by action-adventure standards, Speed is leaden and strangely poky. It never seems to shift into overdrive and let fly.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
In a film like this, timing is everything, and everyone from the stunt coordinators to the crew-at-large seems to have gotten it right the first time.
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
The most breath-stoppingly thrilling motion picture to open since the original Die Hard.
