December 29, 2010The only explanation i could give to someone as to why i rented this movie when i was 17 is that i was a very stupid teenager. and now im in my 20's and i rent a little more importantly subversive, abstractly concrete, diversifyingly... uh, diverse films... like John Tucker must ... read more

August 5, 2010No, it's not good at all and very amateurish in nature, but the fact that it's Vinnie Jones vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin is worth the entire movie. There's a lot of violence, one-liners, etc. You should know what you're getting into before you watch it, expecting a masterpiece wou... read more

June 27, 2010A real stone cold adrenaline-rush of an action movie. It's The Running man meets Lost. A hard-core and exhilarating action-packed thriller that is just a really fun movie to watch. It's very effective and entertaining with great characters and a pretty solid story with a satisfyi... read more

March 13, 2010Great Movie! Just saw it for the second time and was just like the first time, tons of action and a good story.

September 10, 2009I was very impressed. Good old elimination action. Pretty much the same idea like Death Race but in a diffrent environment. But it was a lot better than i expected

January 14, 2009Quick Review:
Not very original, but still very effective and entertaining. I'm not the biggest WWE fan, but I really enjoy Stone Cold and he makes for a great action star. A bit one dimensional... but who cares? It's like an R rated version of the hit Reality Show <... read more

Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
This is a fast-paced, well-made piece of garbage.
April 27, 2007
Claudia Puig, USA Today
If you thought getting voted off the island on Survivor was tough, The Condemned takes that concept as ridiculously and hideously far as can be imagined. Full Review

Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
While rather preposterously hypocritical in its moral pretensions, it nevertheless comes through in the no-holds-barred, body-slam department. Full Review
April 27, 2007
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
You have to love an anti-violence movie that has as its slogan, "10 people will fight. 9 people will die. You get to watch." Hypocrisy in and of itself isn't amusing, but when it's on this grand a sca... Full Review

Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger
When it isn't depicting brutal deaths, the film condemns audiences for flocking to see lurid entertainment. If director Scott Wiper is trying to make a statement, it gets lost in a mirror maze of hypo... Full Review

The Condemned is tailor-made for those who like their violence multifaceted and their women monosyllabic.
April 27, 2007
V.A. Musetto, New York Post
The Condemned, directed by Scott Wiper (appropriate last name), is a bad rip-off of the 2000 Japanese sensation Battle Royale and the 1932 U.S. classic The Most Dangerous Game. Full Review
April 27, 2007
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
It's not only morally bankrupt but, between the ludicrous script and Z-level acting, scrapes the bottom of the entertainment barrel, too. Full Review

Michael Ordoņa, Los Angeles Times
A zillionaire collects 10 hard cases from death rows around the world (how about that, even Running Man rip-offs are being outsourced). Full Review
