	Author	Review
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"Director Miguel Angel Vivas (...) fails to bring any visual flair to the sluggishly paced proceedings, and the CGI effects prove less than convincing."	NEG
United States	Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times	"'Extinction' finds little new in a zombie evolution."	NEG
United States	Katharine Pushkar New York Daily News	"The film's core problems: too little zombie and too much plot. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)"	NEU

United States	Devan Coggan Entertainment Weekly	"Vivas tries to add a family-drama twist to an otherwise standard survival story, but the characters aren't complex enough (and the secrets aren't explosive enough) to elevate this beyond a basic zombie flick"	NEG
