Jordan Mintzer Variety Apr 16, 2009
Riding in on the four ponies currently plaguing the Hollywood horror-thriller -- overstylized torture, whiplash editing, compulsive script reversals and crude neon lighting -- Horsemen brings its herd home to pasture in strictly predictable fashion.

About twenty minutes were cut from the International Release of this film; perhaps they contained whatever narrative glue was needed to make this a cohesive drama. Go to Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Jan 25, 2016

The scenes of Quaid interrogating Zhang boast the hottest 'Outlet Mall Silence of the Lambs Acting' we're likely to see this year. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews Jul 31, 2009

...a watchable yet entirely underwhelming piece of work... Go to Full Review Brian Orndorf DVDTalk.com Jul 16, 2009

A grim picture, but utterly ridiculous; a film encouraged by its own sense of misery, though in service of a director who botches the delicate balance between procedural nightmares and familial concern. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Robert P @Superbad 5 days ago Horsemen is a *1* star Movie... See more Dani G @RT81139271 Aug 1, 2026 Obscure idea, terrible execution See more Stephen C @bob25009 Mar 29, 2026 The worldwide gross is $2,400,000.00. Rated R for Language, Grisly & Disturbing Images and Some Sexual Images. See more Farah R. @Farah Jan 29, 2026 Horsemen is by no means the next Se7en, but it effectively builds up a web of intrigue that culminates to a satisfying plot twist. See more Cork B @RT87142816 Jan 20, 2026 I generally like Dennis Quaid, however I didn't really enjoy this outing. It starts out as this murder mystery with supernatural religious overtones, and ends up devolving into DeGrassi Jr High therapy hour. They totally telescoped the ending from about half way into the movie. See more Bisquiteen T @RT65021124 Aug 19, 2025 Having to try to find Dennis Quaid likable or at least watchable makes it really difficult to get through this movie. See more Read all reviews
