June 18, 2011Overwought and thinly sketched disaster flick but buoyed by a cast that delivers better than decent performances. Stallone, Mortensen, and Bloom are standouts.

February 23, 2010A pretty terrible movie for such a decent cast. It reminds me of The Poseidon Adventure for some reason.

August 15, 2009I don't know of any Sylvester Stallone movies that I don't like and this one is certainly no exception. I remember the critics were all over this movie because it wasn't as good as everybody was expecting it to be and then they gave it bad or mediocre reviews.
When I finally sa... read more -
May 2, 2009I dug it. It's a good action flick in the same vein of Towering Inferno and Earthquake. Not that it's as good as those movies but it's a fun watch.

February 7, 2008I've got a soft spot for Stallone because, an actor/writer/director of reasonable artistic ambition at one time, he seems, like so many of us, to have got stuck doing a job he despises: the reluctant action hero, doomed never to be taken seriously by critics or audiences alike.

Rob Nelson, Boston Phoenix
Still more millennial fear and commuter angst get routed through this toll-heavy disaster vehicle set in New York's Holland Tunnel--call it The Tunneling Inferno. Full Review

Chuck O'Leary, FulvueDrive-in.com
The best of the 1990s disaster-flick revivals, and certainly a solid effort by the usual standards of its star (Stallone) and its hack director (Rob Cohen).

Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
A disaster flick about a group of New Yorkers trapped in the Holland tunnel.

Far more entertaining than it has any right to be.

Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
Almost works as an Irwin Allen-style adventure ... except it's really boring and all the characters stink.

Pablo Villaca, Cinema em Cena
Stallone realmente convence como um homem forte e susceptível ao mesmo tempo. Full Review
