Variety (Rotten):

"Crawl" has no pretense and not very much range; it's "Jaws" set in an old dark house.

Accepting the film's own standard of plausibility, thrillseekers should appreciate the brisk pace with which scares, setbacks and possible escapes are delivered.

LA Times (Fresh):

When it's really working - which is only about half the time - "Crawl" is an efficient and clever environmental adventure picture, set in a nice old house where suddenly nothing is safe.

The Age Australia (Fresh):

Crawl is not a good movie in any sense of the term. But... it lives up to its schlock promise -- delivering jokey shocks with a degree of expertise while retaining enough seeming naivety to let viewers have fun mocking its shortcomings.

Movie Nation (Fresh):

Formulaic but harrowing

Bloody Disgusting (Fresh):

Crawl is not just a fantastic, crowd-pleasing, popcorn-spilling scary movie. If you look at it the right way it's genuinely inspiring

IGN Movies (Fresh):

Alexandre Aja's Crawl is a fun monster movie that relentlessly preys on humans' most primal fears.
