Critics Consensus

Michael Caine shows up to collect a paycheck, and so does everyone else in this rote, middling remake.

How does a numbing mishmash of a movie like this get made? Go to Full Review Mark Rahner Seattle Times 01/01/2000
It's ... been shorn of all the edginess and seedy, unsentimental plot elements that made the original a revered cult classic. Go to Full Review Steven Rea Philadelphia Inquirer 01/01/2000
Moves along with virtually no rhythm, no suspense, and no spark from the morose, goateed star. Go to Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com 5d

…the first Get Carter took a minimalist storyline and hung all kinds of memorable details on it; this version is bland and anonymous…the first film had has a mordant black wit that’s horribly garbled here… Go to Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Jul 28

Laurie S @Karlwinters 01/12/2025 Sly was.totally miscast. Caine played the original to perfection. Less is more etc. Sly was playing Rocky or Rambo all over again and not very well. The director and screenwriter were pants as well. See more RS 12/08/2024 Such a poor movie. 1st 15 minutes watching a funeral and after that only bla bla.. i stopped watching after 35 minutes. Maybe the worst movie from stallone. In the 1st 35 minutes nothing happend .. going to church is more spectacular See more Oaklee D @ODie63 12/05/2024 As far as action/crime films go, this was a very standard affair. Not great, not horrible, just standard. See more peter S 02/18/2024 Damn this is bad. Sly is only good for playing the crazy dude or the punching ball. Waste of time and money. See more Dave C 11/07/2023 Truly awful. Sure this was talked about positively back in the day… evidently not. Lol. I gave up after 30mins… See more Steve D 02/07/2023 Stallone is going through the motions but the script does no one any favors. See more Read all reviews
