Reviews for Never Back Down are mostly as bad as they get. Kyle Smith in the New York Post describes it as "a formula flick that should have tapped out in the script stage." Glenn Whipp in the Los Angeles Daily News regards it as a pulpy piece of formulaic genre entertainment that couches its nonviolent message in a series o ¾f over-the-top, sweaty smack-downs designed to please YouTube's Backyard Brawl Bunch." But Roger Moore in the Orlando Sentinel marks his scorecard positively. "Even though it's as predictable as a pro-wrestling match, what it lacks in originality it makes up for in the nervous energy of youth and testosterone," he writes. |
