- 60The New York TimesNeil GenzlingerThe New York TimesNeil GenzlingerYes, it’s an exploitative sort of filmmaking, but Mr. Zarcoff keeps it fairly restrained for most of the way. You know things will end badly for someone, and perhaps everyone. The ominousness just keeps building.
- 50Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayLos Angeles TimesNoel MurrayThough the movie's consistently watchable, it's rarely grabby, aside from a few strong jump-scares.
- 38Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger Moore13 Cameras plays as a tease, not sexual or graphically violent enough to count as exploitation, not suspenseful enough to get by. And with this plot, this “hidden camera” gimmick, without exploitation, it’s nothing.
- 30The Hollywood ReporterJustin LoweThe Hollywood ReporterJustin LoweAlternately both repetitive and repulsive, this home-invasion thriller never quite hits its stride.
- 30Village VoiceMichael NordineVillage VoiceMichael NordineMild schadenfreude aside, however, the film inspires almost no feeling at all — even the Friday the 13th movies bother giving the bad guy a backstory.
