	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Luke Buckmaster The Guardian	"'Cargo' is a very strong, at times stirring achievement: a zombie film with soul and pathos. The living dead are frightening again (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Sarah Ward Screendaily	"'Cargo' may take a bite out of a teeming genre, but it does so with heart, smarts and some weighty matters on its mind."	POS
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"The film is unlikely to satisfy either viewers looking for serious-minded fare or horror fans looking for genuine frights."	NEG
United States	Nick Schager Variety	"Capably edited and directed, 'Cargo' never takes off into truly unpredictable terrain (...) Freeman’s empathetic turn makes Andy an endearing center of attention"	NEU
United States	Clark Collis Entertainment Weekly	"The Australian setting brings a fresh, and epic, quality (...) The real treat is Freeman, who makes the most of his lead role"	POS
United States	Noel Murray Los Angeles Times	"The cumulative effect is emotionally powerful (...) The movie fails to make the best use of Andy's two-day deadline"	NEU
United States	Jamie Righetti IndieWire	"Howling and Ramke offer much more than cheap emotional manipulation by exploring Australia’s history of colonization, as well as growing fears over climate change and fracking."	POS
