One critic said the movie has everything an action thriller needs: “You know what to expect – a fast pace, good action, that Neeson growl, and some amusing corniness.”

Another wrote: “An enjoyable, pulpy thrill ride that rises above the usual gamut of throwaway early year thriller releases, The Commuter is made all the more interesting by exciting, creative work behind the camera from Collet-Serra.”

Negative reviewers penned: “The film is hobbled by sloppy camera work, ludicrous fight scenes, hairbreadth escapes, and altogether too many suspects.”
