- 40Time Out LondonCath ClarkeTime Out LondonCath ClarkeClarke directs fights in weird slo-mo and is generous with scenes of himself in his undies.
- It’s a nifty idea – especially in terms of structure – but that’s about it, with Clarke’s direction proving as flat as his performance.
- 30Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenLos Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenThere's infinitely more than one anomaly to be found in The Anomaly, a thoroughly nonsensical futuristic sci-fi thriller that makes a case for the perils of vanity projects.
- 30The Hollywood ReporterNeil YoungThe Hollywood ReporterNeil YoungThe general air of slipshod incompetence thus torpedoes the intriguing concepts underlying Lewis's screenplay.
- 30Village VoiceErnest HardyVillage VoiceErnest HardyThe thread holding it all together is endless, repetitive, interminable fight scenes whose limp choreography is spiced up with Matrix-style slow motion -- in 2015. For all that -- fists flying, bullets dodged, gratuitous female nudity -- the film is oddly inert.
