Nigel Floyd
It's brainless fun, but while Anderson's brilliant staging of the flesh-ripping stunts surpasses Bartel's cheap thrills, this update lacks the sardonic wit and satirical bite of the Corman-produced version.
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Let Death Race serve as a warning, or maybe an inspiration, to any TV producer who says she'd kill for high ratings: Why not stage a pay-per-view car race in which prisoners compete to stay alive on the course?
Peter Hartlaub
The combination of good actors and terrible dialogue might have allowed the film a chance at minor cult status, if it weren't for the frustratingly inept action sequences.
Stephanie Zacharek
Death Race is cartoonishly brutal and pleasantly disreputable.
James Berardinelli
Statham's films never promise to be something they're not or offer something they don't provide. Death Race is not an exception.
Roger Moore
Of all the Z-movies in the Roger Corman catalog, they had to remake Death Race 2000.

It's the perfect end-of-summer film, and a sign that summer needs to end soon.
