‘Stone Cold Fox’ Starring Krysten Ritter and Kiefer Sutherland Is Coming To Netflix in January

by

Krysten Ritter is returning to the Marvel universe as Jessica Jones in the 2026 series Daredevil: Born Again. Before that, fans and newcomers alike will be able to watch her earlier action thriller on January 9.

Released in early November with little buzz and mixed reactions, the action movie Stone Cold Fox, starring Kiernan Shipka and Kiefer Sutherland, quickly faded from view. It seemed destined to become another forgettable film lost among countless others—until now. With its move to Netflix, this 80s-inspired movie has a chance to find a much wider audience, as even overlooked films can gain popularity on the streaming platform. Here’s what Stone Cold Fox is about:

After escaping a dangerous and controlling commune, a woman is forced to return when its leader kidnaps her sister and sends a corrupt police officer after her. She must go back undercover to rescue her sibling.

Critics gave Stone Cold Fox a lukewarm reception, with a score of around 60

‘Stone Cold Fox’ Received a Lukewarm Set of Reviews

I recently watched Stone Cold Fox, and it’s definitely a movie that people either love or hate! One reviewer from CBR said it was pure entertainment, with a darkly funny story that felt even grittier than Liv Tyler’s role in Super. And honestly, a lot of other viewers seemed to agree – I saw comments calling it amazing and a super fast-paced, visually stunning action movie. It really left an impression!

On the more critical side, Louisa Moore from Screen Zealots described the movie as having good ideas but flawed editing. Travis Hopson of Punch Drunk Critics felt it was missing the energy, action, and compelling characters needed to stand out from other crime films. Many viewers shared this sentiment, with some saying they couldn’t even finish watching it, and others dismissing it as senseless.

Despite not being well-known when it first came out, many Netflix viewers will likely be interested in checking out this action movie when it’s added on January 9th. However, reading old reviews won’t really tell you if Stone Cold Fox is worth watching. The best way to find out if it’s a great action film or simply a vehicle for Krysten Ritter and Kiernan Shipka is to watch it yourself when it becomes available on Netflix in a few weeks.
