- 60The New York TimesNeil GenzlingerThe New York TimesNeil GenzlingerSeveral varieties of creepy run through As Good as Dead, a gruesomely alluring tale of long-simmering revenge.
- 40New York Daily NewsJoe NeumaierNew York Daily NewsJoe NeumaierThis taut but cliched little thriller is like "Wait Until Dark" with neo-Nazis.
- 30The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeA rote captivity drama with aspirations of sociopolitical relevance, As Good as Dead has nothing to say about torture or racism and little excitement to offer as compensation.
- 20Time OutEric HynesTime OutEric HynesIt's hardly worth slogging through a full hour of unexplained bondage and a so-bombastic-it-seems-sarcastic score, only to be rewarded with a plea for tolerance that's both insincere and inept.
- 20VarietyRonnie ScheibVarietyRonnie ScheibA muddled script, spatially confounding direction and four thesps seemingly acting in four different movies are only a few of the problems with the misbegotten political thriller As Good as Dead.
