Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times (Top Critic)

Swift and stealthy P2 is a canny exploitation of one of the urban woman's greatest fears: the after-hours parking garage.

Mike Mayo Washington Post (Top Critic)

Cheerfully manipulative, P2 is the kind of movie that invites audiences to yell back at the screen and cheer.

Amid the dumbness and disgust for paying customers, the movie does manage to cough up something I didn't expect: a performance so terrible you can't quite believe it's happening: Bentley's.

It sounds like a formula slasher film, but it's actually done well.

The same old grim game of cat and mouse. Sure, we hope the mouse gets away. But mostly we just want the whole thing to end.

Colin Covert Minneapolis Star Tribune (Top Critic)

A slickly efficient neo-grindhouse shocker, a gory palate cleanser for this season of high-toned Oscar magnets and high-minded political dramas.

John Anderson Variety (Top Critic)

P2 struggles to maintain its momentum because there's simply not enough to do in a parking garage to fill out a feature film.

Kyle Smith New York Post (Top Critic)

This is one of those thrillers where the person on-screen is often the only person in the theater who can't guess what'll happen next.

[A] miscast, misdirected botch of a can't-miss plot.

Geoff Pevere Toronto Star (Top Critic)

P2 feels like a vehicle lost in an after-hours parking facility, constantly backing up, shifting gears and generally speeding around in circles in a vain attempt to get somewhere.

The majority of [director Khalfoun's] chase and fight scenes are so artlessly staged that they render suspense moot.

James Berardinelli ReelViews (Top Critic)

63

A serviceable gore-minded thriller --- a competent execution of a premise that ultimately becomes hampered by its inherent constraints.

Kirk Honeycutt Hollywood Reporter (Top Critic)

A minimalist and unimaginative horror thriller.

Unscary, uninteresting tosh from people who should know better.

Rossiter Drake San Francisco Examiner

It's lurid and overblown, relying on its lionhearted heroine never to play her most obvious escape card, but for those with a taste for such silliness, it makes for a harrowing night at the movies.

....easily surpasses everything those horror remakes of late entail. Revels in tis ability to put sweat on faces, by way of a tense skirmish between car spaces

Toda a trama nada mais e do que uma mera desculpa para enfiar a belissima atriz num vestidinho branco justo e encharca-la a fim de que ele fique ainda mais grudado em seu corpo escultural.

Anton Bitel Eye for Film

all the pieces are in place for a great thriller - and then, just like your typical Yuletide get-together, it all falls a little flat.

Has quite a bit going for it, which makes its eventual reliance on inane genre gimmicks that much more disappointing.

Despite an enormously creepy turn from Bentley, the story has nowhere else to go but into the standard (albeit judiciously used) stalk-and-slash territory.
