United States	Jessica Kiang The Playlist	"Centered on an uninvolving hero, and proceeding in unsurprising ways, the film's cinematographic competence can't compensate for an overwhelming sense of 'ok, and?'"	NEU
United States	Stephen Dalton The Hollywood Reporter	"'The Dark Valley' is a visually sumptuous spectacle with solid action and horror elements. But at almost two hours, the plot plods and creaks, sticking too safely within genre conventions."	NEU
United States	Jay Weissberg Variety	"[It] is a leaden, humorless affair (...) At least the winter scenery (...) is suitably spectacular."	NEU
