Empire Magazine Rated: 3/5 Aug 11, 2007 Full Review Larushka Ivan-Zadeh London Evening Standard As clunky as it is emotionally unconvincing. Rated: 1/5 Aug 3, 2007 Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) The passage to ex-rental DVD bins will be swift for this lethally pretentious bit of low-rent schlock. Aug 3, 2007 Full Review Grant Watson Fiction Machine There is a sort of cod-Stephen King kind of horror laid over Wind Chill, but it feels messy and unfocused. Rated: 5/10 Dec 31, 2023 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a refreshingly adult horror effort that boasts a pair of phenomenal lead performances. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 11, 2008 Full Review Brian Holcomb CinemaBlend Imagine a campfire story told by Jack London after downing a bottle of Jack Daniels. The chilly atmosphere would be in full force but the plotting might be a bit punch drunk. Rated: 3.5/5 May 2, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews

Damian M This movie gets a lot more hate then it deserves, great acting, and despite being them trapped in the snowdrift, this movie feels like they go alot of places Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/20/24 Full Review Lisa P I have watched this movie probably 10 times! I think it was well done .It has that creepy vibe ,good story and great acting unlike most movies and remakes now days.Im not sure why some didn't like it. It's a 5 star for me. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/05/24 Full Review Jerod S Starts off with a ton of building doubt that works well to get you tensed up. But when Blunt and her rideshare end up in a snow drift on the way to Delaware and ghosts start showing up, the tension drains right out. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/10/24 Full Review Rosé R Emily Blunt leads this excellent film. But such a tragic ending. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/24 Full Review Kyle M Effectively creeps in over gloomily atmospheric vulnerability while its weakly scripted backbone nonsensically hinders it from further achievement, just leaving the talented cast to independently rise with silent judgment. (B-) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/12/24 Full Review th _ "Wind Chill" is a chilling and suspenseful thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat. The movie effectively creates a tense atmosphere and delivers some unexpected twists. The lead actors give strong performances that add depth to the story. Overall, "Wind Chill" is a gripping and well-crafted film that will leave you feeling unsettled and impressed. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/24 Full Review Read all reviews
