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.

Audience Says

An engaging action outing set against a striking Irish backdrop, Shelter stands as a confidently crafted vehicle for its ever-reliable star.

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.

It's a concept we've seen time and time again but it all comes down to the execution. Waugh delivers a thrilling action film that truly showcases not only the brilliance of Statham as an action star, but his chemistry with co-star Breathnach.

There is nothing egregiously bad about "Shelter," as uninspired as it too often feels.

[Shelter's] familiarity is part of the film’s low-key charm... sometimes a three-star movie just hits the spot as well as anything can.

this movie is kinda slow in the first 10 minutes but it is full of action and doesn't stop. I highly recommend it.
