The Hills Have Eyes reviews are up, and they’re pretty much splitting the critics. Some good, some bad… it’s actually sitting just about as close to a 50% rating as you can get (a 49% as of this writing).
So here’s what some of the critics are saying in their The Hills Have Eyes reviews:
“This remake of the alleged 1977 Wes Craven classic has one very disturbing quality: It’s too damned good.”
Stephen Hunter, WASHINGTON POST
“It is not faulty logic that derails The Hills have Eyes, however, but faulty drama. The movie is a one-trick pony.”
Roger Ebert, CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
“There’s a distinct letdown after an astonishing and unexpected opening section, as if the gravitational pull toward trash-kitsch horror was too much to resist.”
Robert Koehler, VARIETY
a refreshingly brutal and thoroughly entertaining update of Wes Craven’s 1977 cult classic.”
David Nusair, REEL FILM REVIEWS
To me all the advanced stuff for The Hills Have Eyes has been encouraging. I’m a little disapointed that it hasn’t rated higher… but as in everything else I’ll see for myself. You can read more The Hills Have Eyes reviews here.
