After reading some other reviews about it being a remake, and not as good as the first, I really wasn't expecting much. But right from the beginning it was gorey and gross, just like a good horror flick should be. I... Full review

Well, this must prove that what Michael Bay knows about good film-making could safely fit up a gnat's backside. 'Pearl Harbour' and 'Armageddon' were stinkers but this goes much further. Not only is it unimaginative, poorly acted, predictable and generally repugnant,... Full review

Producer Michael Bay continues to cash in on classic horror films by enlisting music video director Dave Meyers to helm this unnecessary and retarded retread of The Hitcher. The original movie, which starred Rutger Hauer as a hitch-hiking psycho who murdered... Full review

This has to be one of the worst films I have ever seen.It tries to be a thriller but seeing Sean Bean's face all the time ruins any sort of thrill or mystery (like when he's chasing the cop cars... Full review

This is an attempt to even out the reviews. There are a few closed minded folks out there who rated it "F" and havent even seen it. You cant rate a movie based on the fact that you dont like remakes.... Full review

Oh, and the 'classic' Hitcher scene - you know the one, that 'towbar' moment - is here and just as unpleasant as it ever was. The best bits: From a blokey perspective, anything involving Sophia Bush. ... Full Review

Ugly and dreadful, nihilistic and cruel, 'The Hitcher' is truly unpleasant, though its sheer commitment to senseless and depraved murder is actually quite refreshing, especially in an era where horror movies typically offer a psychological profile of the killer, or an explanation for his behavior, a motive that drives him... ...
