	Author	Review
United States	Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"While cop thrillers tend to be a dime a dozen, covering much the same ground ad nauseam, Body Cam manages to offer hard-hitting poignancy that makes up for familiarity."	POS
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"Despite the ripeness and flammability of its material, the movie feels oddly distant, the screenplay marred by weak scares, graceless plotting and dashed-off characters"	NEU
United States	Lisa Kennedy Variety	"'Body Cam' has a star and director who bring nuance to the work, injecting understated gravity into an entertaining, unsettling movie"	POS
United States	Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"If you’re such a horror fan that a couple of really well-done grisly sequences are all you need—look no further. Even during a pandemic, I need just a little more than that (...) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Benjamin Lee The Guardian	"Wwatching Vitthal aim high and not quite make it is still preferable to watching so many other horror film-makers remain satisfied with lazy regurgitation (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	John Serba Decider	"'Body Cam' just barely elevates above being a rote horror movie when it starts jabbing the hot button late in the third act"	NEU
