It often feels forced and inauthentic. Perhaps it's a weakness of the direction, but ultimately the film fails to fire up all its many cylinders

Circular exploration of sex, love and relationships, in which interconnected characters reveal how actions, reactions and consequences impact on us all
- Louise Keller, Urban Cinefile, December 06, 2012
The film's generic, meaningless title is a sign of the dullness to come.
- Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald, August 16, 2012
360 is a classic example of how you can't always judge a movie by its credits.
- Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor, August 10, 2012
Though the cinematography looks sleek, with shots through windows and in mirrors, split screens and city lights that blur and sharpen, the stories equate to a tangled mess.
- Stephanie Merry, Washington Post, August 10, 2012
Much like its own characters, it dithers too much - and it dares too little.
- Amy Biancolli, San Francisco Chronicle, August 09, 2012
If someone suggests seeing this, do a 180 - and run.
- Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK], August 09, 2012
If you're hoping for an intelligent night out or any of the usual services, 360 demands a brisk refund.
- Tim Robey, Daily Telegraph, August 09, 2012
'360' is classy but utterly amorphous, and that seemingly benign title gives far too much away.
- Trevor Johnston, Time Out, August 07, 2012
A great disappointment by the City Of God man's high standards.
- Philip Wilding, Empire Magazine, August 06, 2012
Like the fork that usually comes with your airplane meal, 360 is plastic.
- Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine, August 03, 2012
One thing is remarkable here: the amount of high-powered talent assembled to document the obvious.
- Rick Groen, Globe and Mail, August 03, 2012
"360" gives us much in the way of international anguish, frustrated coupling and longing stares, but there's very little plausibility or genuine emotion in its egregiously contrived story of ardor gone amiss.
- Kyle Smith, New York Post, August 03, 2012
With its international collection of mostly two-dimensional characters and its barely developed ideas on adultery, capitalism, addiction and sex, "360" is an over-plotted and dreary farrago.
- Sheri Linden, Los Angeles Times, August 02, 2012
Mr. Morgan has written some good movies, notably "The Queen," and Mr. Meirelles has won fans for neo-exploitation titles like "City of God." There's no way to know what went wrong with "360" and whether it was this uninvolving and shallow from the start.
- Manohla Dargis, New York Times, August 02, 2012
The movie makes for joyless viewing, big stars and all.
- Ella Taylor, NPR, August 02, 2012
A mistake from beginning to end.
- Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com, August 02, 2012
Morgan's dramatis personae connect only in the way a house's wiring connects after a visit by a duff electrician.
- Nigel Andrews, Financial Times, August 09, 2012
There's one Anthony Hopkins monologue to remember, but that only highlights everything the rest of the film so sorely lacks.
- Paul Fairclough, Little White Lies, August 09, 2012
360 throws in enough cold weather, meaningful stares and cursory explorations of globalism to fool easily-impressed audiences into thinking they've seen something important, but there's nothing new or resonant going on here.
