Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: Read more
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: It's been a while since we saw a demagogic feminist exploitation revenge drama, and Descent, while top-heavy with 'agenda,' is shrewdly done. Read more
Jack Mathews, New York Daily News: No moviegoer has done anything to deserve the images that director Talia Lugacy would throw in their face. Read more
Kyle Smith, New York Post: Look-at-me-I'm-a-filmmaker photography, pacing that has all the thrills of waiting in line at the post office and an utterly predictable plot combine to make the movie even worse than the hacky chick revenge fantasy now showing on channel 186 of your box. Read more
Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com: It's a lot like a '70s exploitation movie, with its determination to seduce and shock the viewer with alternating currents of electrical stimulus, and its weird combination of arty arch-decadence and neo-Victorian moralizing. Read more

Ernest Hardy, Village Voice: A well-acted trifle straining to be a hard-hitting morality play. Read more
