Email this page to a friend   Critics Reviews Average Grade:   C- Source Brief Review Grade* Atlanta Journal-Constitution Eleanor Ringel Gillespie "Not as sharp as you might want, but still a serviceable shot of shiny escapism." more... C+ Boston Globe Ty Burr "...businesslike but not very bright little thriller..." more... C   Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert "...the story works if you're willing to meet it halfway." more... B- Chicago Tribune Allison Benedikt "...rings almost logical." more... B- E! Online "...Derailed starts on the wrong track and goes nowhere fast." more... C- Entertainment Weekly Lisa Schwarzbaum "...a junky thriller that mistakes brute-strength plot twist, showy violence, and the against-type participation of Jennifer Aniston (as Lucinda, the dame) for earned excitement." more... C- filmcritic.com Sean O'Connell "Based on the number of surprise endings that parade through the final minutes of Derailed, it's safe to assume (director) Håfström bypassed Return of the King and rented The Sixth Sense for the seventeenth time." more... C- Hollywood Reporter Michael Rechtshaffen "Convoluted plotting and problematic casting derail this Hitchcock knockoff." more... C- New York Post Kyle Smith "Train wreck." more... D- New York Times Manohla Dargis "...a glossy and often risible bit of trash about an adulterous affair gone bad, bad, bad..." more... D   ReelViews James Berardinelli "Tedious and predictable..." more... C- Rolling Stone Peter Travers "The strapping Owen as a guy who can't handle himself and cutie-pie Aniston as a witchy woman? I don't think so." more... C   San Francisco Chronicle Ruthe Stein "...compounded by a ludicrous script whose twists and turns are laughably obvious or just plain laughable..." more... D+ Seattle Post-Intelligencer William Arnold "...the ending is so absurdly unmotivated that it plays like a slap in the face." more... C- USA Today Mike Clark "...clumsy, miscast thriller." more...
