Thriller. Action A mother leans on her horn at the wrong time, to the wrong guy. "Road rage" doesn't begin to describe what he's about to do to her and everyone she knows.

	Author	Review
United States	Kaleem Aftab IndieWire	"Many of us are desperate for the return of communal moviegoing experiences. But 'Unhinged' plays less like an attempt to save the cinema than to burn it all down."	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"The problem is that the film won’t let you simply savour the pure motiveless horror of road rage (...) [It] is a by-the-numbers violent movie, a driverless car heading up a dead end (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Tim Robey Telegraph	"As a psychothriller, it gives itself one simple assignment – to set your heart rate pounding through the roof. And on this level, with a lurid voltage that might require health warnings, it nastily delivers (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Guy Lodge Variety	"For all the cheap-and-dirty genre pleasures that ensue, 'Unhinged' can never top the gripping, grisly pull of that first scene"	NEU
United States	Stephen Dalton The Hollywood Reporter	"Unwatchable (...) Even as mindless entertainment, 'Unhinged' is mostly running on empty (...) A forgettable, formulaic, functional B-movie"	NEG
United Kingdom	Clarisse Loughrey The Independent	"Borte’s film is tense, slick, and finds just enough mildly ludicrous causes of death to earn its high-concept thriller credentials (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Wendy Ide Screendaily	"Crowe certainly makes for a formidable villain (...) The result is daunting, but the lack of complexity does seem a waste of Crowe’s talents."	NEU
United Kingdom	Christina Newland Empire	"Slickly paced, provocatively violent in small bursts, and truly shocking at times (...) While it’s not especially fresh, it’s still solid genre filmmaking (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Australia	Wenlei Ma News	"An aggressively intense experience (...) [It doesn’t] consider the wider systemic or social issues that leads to someone like the man. So, it would’ve been better off keeping it simple (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Christy Lemire rogerebert.com	"Maybe the film's frantic chases and crashes leading up to a wild climax are a lot more fun with other people in an audience, hooting and hollering with muffled excitement beneath their masks. But I doubt it (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Johnny Oleksinski New York Post	"Bloody and hilarious (...) As the horror genre has, in recent years, grown more sophisticated and clever, you heave a sigh of relief to be handed a thriller that’s so dumb (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
