Never Let Go

"(Berry) is a sturdy presence in an intriguing post-apocalyptic puzzle that can’t quite find all of the pieces."

"Takes itself far more seriously than the material merits."

"The film becomes virtually incoherent in a ploy to keep us on the edge of our seats."

"What the movie asks these child performers to do doesn’t add up to effective horror — it’s just opportunistic and gross."

"A vicious little bedtime story with sharp teeth."

"A twisty thrill ride that never gives audiences a moment to get comfortable."

"Fails by virtue of its competing ideas."

"If there’s anything this fantastical campfire tale lacks, it’s a smart, satiating ending."

"Equal parts original and entertaining."

"Mr. Aja makes the most of an uninspired script."

"Worthwhile despite an underdeveloped finale."

"A movie simply about an extreme helicopter parent."
