United States | Chicago Tribune | "A cunning and hilarious update of the giant-insect movies of the 1950s" | POS |
United States | The Washington Post | "It's a genre survey, a homage, a meditation, a parody and, oh yeah, while it's at it, still a pretty good story." | POS |
United States | Chicago Sun-Times | "Has laughs, thrills, wit and scary monsters, and is one of those goofy movies like "Critters" that kids itself and gets away with it" | POS |
United States | New York Daily News | "Neither particularly funny nor especially scary. But it's so cheerfully silly, you may just have fun with it anyway." | NEU |
United States | SFGATE | "Has a smart mix of things going for it, including a self-effacing sense of humor." | POS |
United States | Variety | "This update of 1950s drive-in sci-fiers finds the right balance between icky, funny and scary, with sheer energy compensating for a script that could have used more parodic panache" | NEU |
United States | Los Angeles Times | "The movie is so unapologetic in its crassness that it disarms even the fussiest connoisseur of throwaway disaster flicks" | POS |
United States | The New York Times | "Awkward, obvious and sporadically -- very sporadically -- amusing" | NEG |
