Charlotte ObserverLawrence Toppman
Could pass for any serial killer movie except for some pertinent philosophizing about the nature of evil and the operations of the soul. Read full review

Baltimore SunChris Kaltenbach
Most of the fun to be had with Thr3e is to spot the movies from which it cribs. Beyond that, what one has is a conventional psychological thriller that cheats too often and depends on actors determined to play only one note. Read full review

Chicago ReaderJ.R. Jones
The vile sadism of the Saw movies has been replaced by decorative references to Saint Augustine and Immanuel Kant, and there's a beautiful but brainy police profiler (Waddell) on hand to dispense a thick layer of psychobabble. Read full review

A pretty run-of-the-mill B suspense movie. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterFrank Scheck
The fairly routine plot is made somewhat more interesting by the infusion of issues regarding morality and faith, but ultimately Three, for all its philosophizing, is little more than a standard serial-killer movie with pretensions. Read full review

Unfortunately, the filmmakers failed to replace sex, splatter and cursing with sharp dialogue, characters and plotting. Read full review

Marc Blucas as the hunted seminary student Kevin Parson might as well be dead for all his charisma. Read full review

Suspenselessly directed by Robby Henson, Thr3e commits the eighth deadly sin - boredom. Read full review

Seattle Post-IntelligencerThom Koschwanez
This is one of the most confusing, horribly written movies I've ever seen, and I'm the king of watching bad movies ... and liking them. Read full review
