Los Angeles Times

A superior action thriller loaded with jaw-dropping stunts and special effects...

The New York Times

Offers above-average pyrotechnics, a body count that steadily mounts, and plenty of hand-to-hand combat.

TV Guide

Good clean fun, with just the right ratio of explosions to dialogue.

The Washington Post

Van Damme races against time, trying to thwart Boothe and defuse all the bombs. But in the hands of director Peter Hyams, these are just banal action-movie chores.

San Francisco Chronicle

Sudden Death is one of the best action thrillers of 1995. It's also the film Jean-Claude Van Damme has been building up to for 10 years.
