Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Ronnie Scheib (420) for Variety (12,700) on 20 Jan 2007

In the absence of actors with the tremendous presence of Rutger Hauer and Jennifer Jason Leigh, picture loses its raison d'etre…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Jules Brenner (885) for Cinema Signals (847) on 19 Jan 2007

Meyers keeps it emotionally unfilling, so that you can go have dinner afterward with nary a qualm about having had your guts twisted…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Colin Covert (1,936) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 19 Jan 2007

The screenplay disastrously rewrites the original's climax, turning Bush's college waif into an indestructible female Terminator who can unerringly…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Eugene Novikov (936) for Film Blather (908) on 19 Jan 2007

Though far from a thoughtless dead zone, The Hitcher is too limp and complacent a horror flick to capitalize on its promise, or on its source…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Mike Mcgranaghan (1,821) for Aisle Seat (1,783) on 19 Jan 2007

Picking up a crazed hitchhiker is conceivable. Picking up a crazed hitchhiker who knows every move you're going to make before you make it is not…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Nick Schager (2,294) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 19 Jan 2007

So blandly forgettable that it almost makes one miss the original's C. Thomas Howell...if, that is, it were humanely possible to miss C…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Pete Hammond (936) for Maxim (189) on 19 Jan 2007

The whole thing is so deja vu , it gets kind of ho-hum, despite the increased body count and quick running time…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Jim Hemphill (63) for Reel.com (1,232) on 19 Jan 2007

Though the plot is close enough to the 1986 version to earn a screen credit for that film's scriptwriter, Eric Red, the execution is so botched…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 19 Jan 2007

This isn't a commentary on the breakdown of law and order, of civil society itself -- it's a symptom of it…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Matt Weitz (37) for Dallas Morning News (1,592) on 19 Jan 2007

Ultimately, this is a bit of trash that will most comfortably line the cages of those who have no memory or attachment to the original…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Rob Vaux (1,125) for Flipside Movie Emporium (617) on 19 Jan 2007

A long slow freeway drive to nowhere, marked by non-events that should be a lot more frightening than they are…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Staci Layne Wilson (667) for About.com (1,470) on 19 Jan 2007

Although some viewers may be saying 'I want to die' after seeing this latest Hollywood horror remake, I thought the new The Hitcher was revved…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Kurt Loder (858) for MTV (492) on 19 Jan 2007

Sean Bean is too intelligent an actor for the part…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Matt Pais (1,519) for Metromix.com (1,085) on 19 Jan 2007

Based on the movie's total disinterest in a motive, the hitcher's biggest reason for murder appears to be that he never got to have a spring…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Kevin Carr (1,610) for 7M Pictures (1,037) on 19 Jan 2007

Bean deliver a great psycho in this film…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Edward Havens (184) for FilmJerk.com (622) on 19 Jan 2007

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Stephen Saito (325) for Premiere Magazine (318) on 19 Jan 2007

The Hitcher's main problem is that many of the title character's dirty deeds are done off-camera…

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Nathan Rabin (1,078) for AV Club (2,778) on 19 Jan 2007

Review of The Hitcher (2007)

By Maitland Mcdonagh (2,150) for TV Guide (1,527) on 19 Jan 2007
