United Kingdom	Time Out	"There are some fine set-pieces (...) but the end opts disappointingly for standard horror-house effects."	NEU
United States	Michael Wilmington Chicago Tribune	"[The script] has more flair than depth, but not much of either (...) What can you say about a movie that seems to have been conceived like a trailer (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"The plot, in short, is beneath our interest. What is intriguing is that the four actresses succeed in playing their characters as realistic modern teenagers (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Mick LaSalle SFGATE	"The smartest and most satisfying horror thriller to come out in a while (...) The young actresses are superb"	POS
United States	Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times	"You can admire the considerable expertise and clear dedication that went into the making of 'The Craft,' but you may have trouble actually enjoying it."	NEU
United States	Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly	"The film ends up descending into moralizing blahness. Most of the special effects are routine"	NEG
United States	Emanuel Levy Variety	"Pic begins to lose its narrative pull after the first reel, and yarn progressively deteriorates into a series of well-executed special effects"	NEU
