	Media	Author	Review
		Dennis Harvey Variety	"There may be nothing memorable enough here to stir great enthusiasm for another Steve Vail outing (...) But while you’re watching, Harlin and company provide a fun ride."
		Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense Media	"Ranging from utterly generic to totally ridiculous, this action/thriller is like a second-rate version of a 1990s movie; it's all bickering, one-liners, and overly familiar plot turns (...) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"
		Peter Martin Screen Anarchy	"Watching 'The Bricklaye'r reminded how much fun Renny Harlin movies can be, even if the characters never peer deeply into their souls"
		Chris Bumbray JoBlo	"It’s a lot more fun than you’d think, given how flooded the market is with movies like these"
		John Serba Decider	"It’s thoroughly inept"
		Matt Glasby Radio Times	"Despite risible dialogue and some slapdash production elements, there's fun to be had for those in the right mood (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
