Reviews for this film from our members:
- Mario Alegre @ Primera Hora [Spanish]
- Edwin Arnaudin @ Ashvegas
- Excerpt: If these kind of films are what modern horror fans want, so be it, but when the filmmaking is this lazy and the characters are so uninteresting that their survival isn’t of much concern, what’s the incentive for watching?
- Anton Bitel @ movieScopemag.com
- Tim Brayton @ Antagony & Ecstasy
- Excerpt: There comes a point where the difference between bad-on-purpose and just-plain-bad is wholly academic.
- Patrick Bromley @ F This Movie!
- Joshua Brunsting @ The CriterionCast
- Kevin Carr @ 7M Pictures
- Excerpt: a smartly devised horror movie masquerading as a really dumb one
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: a bit of a one trick pony – once the ‘surprise’ is revealed, it mostly just goes through the motions.
- Tony Dayoub @ Cinema Viewfinder
- Excerpt: …ruthlessly inventive…
- Mark Dujsik @ Mark Reviews Movies
- Excerpt: This is smart, frightening, and funny material that’s an invigorating kick in the genre’s ass.
- Susan Granger @ www.susangranger.com
- Excerpt: A mediocre, late-summer slasher, filled with pointless carnage
- [New – 5/8/14] | A.J. Hakari @ CineSlice
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: If you want to satiate your bloodlust, regardless of plot, script, sense, character development or standards, then You’re Next should fit the bill nicely.
- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: Oh, it’s horrific, all right: wooden performances and stilted exposition, punctuated by bouts of random bloody sadism.
- Jeremy Kibler @ The Artful Critic
- Excerpt: Slaughter-Home Alone: “You’re Next” a wickedly entertaining devil that refreshes horror genre
- Benjamin Kramer @ The Voracious Filmgoer
- Kristin Dreyer Kramer @ NightsAndWeekends.com
- Piers Marchant @ Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
- Brent McKnight @ Beyond Hollywood
- Excerpt: “You’re Next” isn’t genre bending, it’s genre done very, very well, and one of the most entertaining movies of the year.
- Ross Miller @ Thoughts On Film
- Excerpt: My review of You’re Next, a home invasion horror-thriller from director Adam Wingard.
- Simon Miraudo @ Quickflix
- Frank Ochieng @ SFcrowsnest
- Excerpt: Saturated with snappy dialogue, twisty plotting and wicked-minded wit, the sacrificial lambs in ‘You’re Next’ that display murderous masked menaces and their pristine prey are a welcomed relief to the corrosive crop of dice-and-slice cinema that currently bombard the indie horror scene.
- R. Kurt Osenlund @ Slant Magazine
- Jamie S. Rich @ DVD Talk
- Excerpt: You’re Next is just fine, if maybe lacking in suspense. Wingard generates good tension in individual moments, but he fails to create a consistent tone of dread…
