United States	Edward Guthmann SFGATE	"A major adrenaline rush"	POS
United States	Todd McCarthy Variety	"[It] gets off a few decent blasts, but is just too limited in scope, imagination and excitement"	NEG
United States	Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly	"The B-movie qualities of Daylight begin to bore rather than endear"	NEG
United States	Janet Maslin The New York Times	"It has the problem of peaking early (...) The film turns murky once it's stuck underground."	NEG
United Kingdom	Jason Caro Radio Times	"Cohen's orchestration of the requisite action scenes (...) is impressive. Although by no means a genre classic, this provides enough solid entertainment to offset its overfamiliar storyline (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
