• "By the end of this underwritten wanna-B movie, only the black-and-white muscle car is left standing with its dignity intact."—Dan Kois of The Washington Posthttp://www.washingtonpost.com/gog/movies/faster,1097056/critic-review.html

• "The Killer subplot looks and feels like it was grafted on with Krazy Glue. Thornton’s character never adds up. And the film’s big whiplash surprise ending is a real you’ve-got-to-be-kidding groaner."—Stephen Cole of The Globe and Mailhttp://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/arts/movies/faster-revved-up-genre-vehicle-roars-off-the-road/article1810524/

• "If it all sounds a bit thin, that's because it is. Therein lies the charm for viewers who don't mind the occasional slice of pulp filmmaking."—Gary Dowell of The Dallas Morning Newshttp://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/ent/movies/reviews/stories/112310dngdfaster.1fd4bf2.html

• "Yet sometimes all you really want is a cheese sandwich. Sometimes it’s fun to be 12, for a while. And, as big dumb action movies go, “Faster” is big dumb fun for a while — a nicely photographed, quickly edited and calmly underplayed flick that, taking the advice of its title, does what it needs to do quickly."—Stephen Whitty of The Star-Ledgerhttp://www.nj.com/entertainment/movies/index.ssf/2010/11/faster_review_gracefully_directed_this_action_film_thats_just_plain_fun.html
