Reaction: Share is the studio's first attempt at more micro-budget filmmaking. We're pretty happy with the results. The movie made enough of a profit to pay for another movie of the same budget - so we can't complain about that. The foreign home video sales were especially impressive.



"Scott Derrickson directs this bizarrely cast film with a sure hand. Ultimately the casting is a bit of a problem - with Charlie Cox and Brandon Routh very stiff throughout, and the cameo from Penelope Cruz is pretty distracting." - Geoff Bray, Slant Magazine



"Has there ever been a more awkward romantic pairing than Charlie Cox and Jada Pinkett Smith in the history of Hollywood? Scott Derrickson's direction really saves this film. So if you're a fan of good directing and weird, possibly drug-induced casting decisions - this is the film for you." - Clark Davis, JoBlo.com




"The elements that work in the film, like Ralph Fiennes creepy cameo, Scott Derrickson behind the camera, just can't overcome the elements that don't work." - Olive Carroll, Houston Chronicle
