Kevin Thomas, Chicago Tribune: Read more

Ted Fry, Seattle Times: Shuttle is a grim and twisted exercise in high-stress terror that falls just short of the torture-porn subgenre. Read more

Scott Tobias, AV Club: When the payoff finally arrives, it seems tasteless not just because of its topicality, but because the shock feels unearned. Read more

Ty Burr, Boston Globe: Shuttle mostly exists, in the words of Alfred Hitchcock, to 'put the audience through it,' but it leaves you in a very different place than where it started and with remarkable economy of effort. Read more

Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: If you step aboard Shuttle, be prepared for one heck of a ride filled with suspense, action and ever-escalating terror. With this ingenious thriller, Edward Anderson, who wrote the heist flick Flawless, makes an audacious directorial debut. Read more

Denver Post: Read more

Chuck Wilson, L.A. Weekly: Next time, spring for a cab. Read more

Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: The film is an efficiently engineered mechanism for creating suspense. Read more

Hank Sartin, Time Out: Read more

Dennis Harvey, Variety: A decently twisty indie thriller about hostages lured aboard an airport minivan whose destination is nowhere pleasant. Read more
