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.

It's dull, standard action fare, rendered in shades of gray from director Ric Roman Waugh.

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.

If you’re looking for the most basic of action thrills, then Shelter will provide on that front, but it does little of anything else on any level besides being average.

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.

A solid, watchable, if hardly groundbreaking, entry in the Statham canon.

Superb. Jacob Staphan is outstanding--and gorgeous. The spoken dialogue is clear,, as is the plot. The scenery is magnificent. The action is terrific, and there is lots of it. All enjoyable. There is a tender side to the story that gives it emotional appeal. i hope that there will be a sequel. I highly recommend.

Great action sequences, and we felt for the characters. The ending was somewhat unsatisfying, and it felt like the plot was cut short and wrapped up hastily, but the movie was still enjoyable.
