Petroni, in any case, is a skilled storyteller with a strong visual sense. Read full review

Neil Genzlinger

The film is part psychological thriller, part horror movie, and the horror elements deliver some solid frights. Mr. Brody isn’t asked to stretch much, but he does his usual thing adroitly. Read full review

Neill is quietly compelling, as always. Brody underplays Pete, emphasizing his suffering, his victimhood, his guilt. It’s a performance mostly of reactions, and the aforementioned wayward accent. Read full review

Feb 22, 2016

Lacking the stylistic finesse that might have compensated for its schematic narrative deficiencies, Backtrack lives up to its title all too well. Read full review

Stephen Whitty

Feb 24, 2016

Backtrack eventually moves beyond its shamelessly borrowed set-up to create a few chills of its own. Read full review

Aaron Hillis

Feb 23, 2016

Between the generic shadowy cinematography and a gothic score that manages to telegraph even the film's jump-scares, there's no tangible tension by which to build an effective climax. Read full review

Ed Gonzalez

Feb 22, 2016

The film is the cinematic equivalent of watching a Rubik's Cube noisily solve itself for 90 minutes. Read full review

"I see dead people" what a great movie that was, with a twist at the end. Similarly, this movie has a story line we follow and think we know how it will end, but no. I like the style of the movie, kinda dark, short scenes cut from one to another without much explanation. The movie"I see dead people" what a great movie that was, with a twist at the end.

The movie doesn't hit you over the head explaining what's going on, you are supposed to figure it out as you watch it unfold.… Expand

Too bad Backtrack has nothing to do to save this movie from being interacted by its flaws thanks to its flaws being all over the place. Backtrack keeps trying.
