River Wild Ratings & Reviews
Loud and Clear Reviews
Megan Fisher
Buoyed up by Meester's strong performance and some truly gnarly bits of violence, River Wild is an effective little potboiler, appropriate for a Saturday afternoon.
Beyond the Cinerama Dome
Tina Kakadelis
It's not every day that Seth Cohen and Blair Waldorf fight for their lives on a whitewater rafting journey, but if River Wild proves anything, it's that this should be an everyday occurrence.
Decider
Radhamely De Leon
But the script has its pitfalls that are typical for low-budget thrillers like this. There are multiple lines of dialogue that feel so corny and out of character, it may even remove you from the action.
Common Sense Media
JK Sooja
The best part of this thriller is its brevity, how fast it gets going, and how quickly it reaches its conclusion.
Keith & the Movies
Keith Garlington
This new reimagining makes several significant changes to the characters and their stories while maintaining the beautiful yet treacherous setting that plays such an integral part in the film's success.
Dread Central
Tyler Doupe
It's not all that creative or revolutionary but 'River' Wild' manages to be thrilling enough to warrant a watch.
Reel Talk with Chuck and Pam
Charles Koplinski
However, the final scene is on point and the emotional pull of the story is enough to make me forgive River its faults, but by a very narrow margin. 3 Stars
The Only Critic
Nate Adams
For a remake of a decent through not entirely beloved nineties cable hit, you could do much worse.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It has a good mix of action, suspense and nature scenes.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
Less a remake of the starry 1994 film than a simpler, bare-bones take on the premise of malevolence during a white-water rafting trip, "River Wild" is an efficiently-made but flimsy potboiler about a berserk killer that's notable only for its location.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
The results are a tense, effective thriller that serves as one of the strongest efforts in the realm of direct-to-home video releases. Stronger than many theatrical thrillers, and some smart casting here as well.
Cultured Vultures
Natasha Alvar
River Wild may be a remake of sorts, but it's still very much its own film, with its own charms.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
A taut exercise with a few teeth-gnashing rafting sequences.
Digital Mafia Talkies
Pramit Chatterjee
River Wild is not a good movie. If you want to watch a group of people go on a deadly and stressful rafting mission, just watch the original 1994 film. I won't recommend wasting your time on this.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Meester is a strong lead...giving the film some much needed emotional force without oversimplifying it.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
I haven't seen the original since it came out almost thirty years ago, although I recall having mixed feelings about it. This new one engenders no such ambivalence. It's an effective little thriller.
Fiction Horizon
Casey Chong
The otherwise unnecessary reboot gets a gritty and psychological-horror makeover.
Solzy at the Movies
Danielle Solzman
River Wild is an unnecessary reimagining of the 1994 thriller, The River Wild...

Jackie K. Cooper
Nothing like a wild river ride to stir up some action and suspense.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
While it doesn't match the thrills of the 1994 effort, "River Wild" has compelling grimness, refreshing brevity (running 85 minutes), and contains a few surges of panic to keep it involving.
