- 40The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckVeering heavily into sexual territory, the film is more a gothic melodrama than a horror film. It certainly feels like a waste of not only Cage's talent (although the actor has a climactic, literally fiery scene that will forever change the way you think about the pop song "Leader of the Pack"), but also Potente, whose potential has been sadly underrealized in American films.
- 40Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayLos Angeles TimesNoel MurrayThe actor’s fierce commitment turns Between Worlds into another solidly strange entry in the ever-expanding “Nicolas Cage movie” sub-genre.
- 30The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisWhile fragments of past, present and who-knows-what events flash past, Cage, bless him, fully commits to the nuttiness.
- 25Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger MooreBetween Worlds is a down and dirty supernatural thriller with the faintest veneer of substance covering the sordid.
- 12RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsRogerEbert.comSimon AbramsBetween Worlds is also, unfortunately, a weird "Twin Peaks" homage, complete with industrial band ohGr's not-so-industrial, "Twin Peaks"-y score and "Twin Peaks"-like theme during the opening credits sequence (performed by "Twin Peaks" composer Angelo Badalamenti, no less).
