By Calvin Wilson (480) for St. Louis Post-Dispatch (1,715) on 28 Sep 2016

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Bennett Campbell Ferguson (43) for Willamette Week (516) on 28 Sep 2016

Deepwater Horizon is too incoherent to be gripping and doesn't acknowledge that the Deepwater tragedy not only gave rise to courage under oil…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Bill Goodykoontz (2,123) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 28 Sep 2016

Berg keeps the story personal, which is certainly one way to tell it, though it would have been nice to see a little more about the devastating…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Ann Hornaday (1,919) for Washington Post (9,851) on 28 Sep 2016

When disaster strikes, about an hour into the movie, we’re put in the uncomfortable position of admiring the fiery spectacle that Berg has…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Josh Kupecki (255) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 28 Sep 2016

That Berg and writers Matthew Carnahan and Matthew Sand stick strictly to the day of that explosion and subsequent fire that sank the Deepwater…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Leah Greenblatt (734) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 28 Sep 2016

What works almost disturbingly well is the way Berg calibrates his delivery of the disaster while still holding on to the human scale of it…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Danny Leigh (85) for Financial Times (1,822) on 28 Sep 2016

The script gleams with efficiency…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Jason Zingale (478) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 28 Sep 2016

It works just fine as a dramatic reenactment of corporate greed gone horribly wrong, but unlike the real-life incident, it will quickly be forgotten…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Nick Rogers (786) for The Film Yap (559) on 28 Sep 2016

It's often easy to zone out early, but let the weight of the math behind the numbers hit you relative to the lives lost - danger, devastation…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for Blu-ray.com (2,093) on 28 Sep 2016

Berg actually manages to smother his battering-ram storytelling skills for a change, keeping Deepwater Horizon lean and meaningful, though…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By A.o. Scott (2,100) for New York Times (5,786) on 28 Sep 2016

The film itself is as much a feat of engineering as a work of art, an efficient machine for delivering intricate data and blunt emotions…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Ty Burr (2,612) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 28 Sep 2016

A taut, engrossing action movie about real-life heroes, so why is it a disappointment? Because director Peter Berg is telling the wrong story…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 28 Sep 2016

As entertainment, it works in the most rote way: the star power of Wahlberg, Russell, and Kate Hudson, who plays Mike’s worried wife; Malkovich’s…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Soren Anderson (264) for Seattle Times (3,524) on 28 Sep 2016

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Lou Lumenick (2,103) for New York Post (6,650) on 28 Sep 2016

What we’ve got is a highly entertaining nautical version of “The Towering Inferno’’ (still my favorite guilty pleasure of all time)…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 28 Sep 2016

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Lawrence Toppman (1,654) for Charlotte Observer (1,670) on 28 Sep 2016

The film’s well-paced and well-acted, and I couldn’t take my eyes off it most of the way…

Review of Deepwater Horizon (2016)

By Justin Chang (1,535) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 28 Sep 2016
