- David “DC” Bolling @ DC’s Take
- Excerpt: Although the script could’ve used more bite, I can perceive Renfield as a passably amusing, if flawed, vampire comedy that (for the most part) doesn’t take itself too seriously. Nicholas Hoult is charming as the titular character, while Nicolas Cage as Count Dracula is absolutely perfect.
- Travis Burgess @ The Sacred Wall
- Excerpt: Nicolas Cage is having the time of his life in the horror comedy ‘Renfield.’ It’s a shame the rest of the film isn’t up to par
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Writer Ryan Ridley and director Chris McKay (“The Lego Batman Movie) squander their fabulous dual Nicolas leads with a mediocre vampire/crime thriller crossover that cannot hold a candle to TV’s ‘What We Do in the Shadows.’
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: The account is indeed horrifying. However, it’s the gap between idea and execution that is most appalling.
- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: Nicholas Hoult is lovely. Hammy Nicolas Cage is amusing. But everyone in this movie is in a different movie; the tonal mismatches are baffling. Was it the first draft of this script that was greenlit?
- Harrison Martin @ Flixfrog
- Excerpt: Renfield is an over-the-top horror comedy that is bound to make you laugh out loud. This movie has more fatalities than Mortal Kombat (2021)! Once again Nicolas Cage gives 100%. Nicholas Hoult and Awkwafina have great chemistry.
- [New] | Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: The gore is wild and the fight choreography uses every bit of it. The movie ultimately delivers everything it promises as a result, a fact that makes it successful if not inherently “good.”
