Shelter

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Classing up an overdone premise with professional execution, Shelter is highly derivative of previous Jason Statham action vehicles but lean and mean enough to forgive the recycled tropes.

Statham fans may still love Shelter, and it makes for serviceable entertainment, but it’s just not, in the end, very interesting. Go to Full Review

It's dull, standard action fare, rendered in shades of gray from director Ric Roman Waugh. Go to Full Review
Leslie Felperin Guardian 4d
2/5
Shelter, formulaically directed by Ric Roman Waugh (Greenland) working from a script by Ward Parry (The Shattering), feels populated by indestructible plastic tropes that have cracked and faded after years of scorching sun exposure. Go to Full Review
Simon Foster Screen-Space (Substack) 2d
3.5/5
Its heartbeat is the bond shared between the terrific Breathnatch...and an ageing Statham, whose face of twisted scar tissue, deeply-cratered forehead and cavernous worry-lines makes him as ‘human’ as he’s ever been on-screen. Go to Full Review
Peter Gray The AU Review 2d
3/5
A solid, watchable, if hardly groundbreaking, entry in the Statham canon. Go to Full Review
Mark Jackson Epoch Times 3d
2.5/5
Jason Statham rests on his laurels here, but has probably also launched young Bodhi Rae Breathnach’s career. Go to Full Review
