Critics have pointed out the uneven pacing and lack of depth in exploring the psychological aspect of the story. While the visual effects are commendable, they can't make up for the shortcomings in the screenplay. 'Sphere' struggles to maintain suspense and fails to capitalize on its intriguing concept. Overall, the movie received mixed reviews from critics, with many highlighting missed opportunities and a lack of cohesion in storytelling. IMDb rated the movie 6.1/10, Rotten Tomatoes gives it a low 13% approval rating, and Metacritic scored it at 35/100.
