| Box Office Petet Hammond Let Me In eclipses Twilight in every way, leaving you thirsty for more of this haunting, touching and unforgettable thriller. | 15 | |
| Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert Those hoping to see a 'vampire movie' will be surprised by a good film. | 18 | |
| eye Weekly Jason Anderson The problem is that Reeves hasn’t done much more than work a familiarly moody groove. | 10 |  |
| ReelViews James Berardinelli Let Me In represents one of the best and most brutal vampire movies to come along in a while and, despite presenting a romance of sorts between a human boy and a vampire girl, it will not remind many viewers of Twilight. In fact, Let Me In is about as far away from Twilight as one can get, and that's a good thing. | 15 | |
| Rolling Stone Peter Travers Prepare to be wowed. It's a spellbinder. | 15 | |
| ScreenIt C. Fuchs I'm happy to report that the offering isn't just an exceptional film about vampires, but it's also a terrific one about childhood in terms of friends, enemies (e.g. bullies), family life and kids feeling like they'll be trapped forever in whatever unhappy situation in which they currently find themselves. Yes, the themes run deep in this film right alongside the horror and suspense and the result is one of the best entries of its genre. | 15 | |
