The New York TimesJanet Maslin
Another thriller that packs a spooky wallop as it conjures an unseen world within reach. Read full review

NewsweekDavid Ansen
The movie tries too hard. Too bad. This coulda been a contender. Read full review

Rolling StonePeter Travers
Compared with ("The Sixth Sense"), there's no contest. Stir of Echoes has been outrun and outclassed.

Entertainment WeeklyOwen Gleiberman
Offers tricky fragmentation without mystery or mood; it's a mosaic of fear that grows less and less unsettling as it comes together. Read full review

Baltimore SunAnn Hornaday
Some dazzling in-camera special effects, especially the ingenious idea of filming the story's ghost at a slow speed, six frames per second, giving the being a strange, otherworldly way of moving. Read full review
