- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: The film’s weak point is the connectivity between these two aspects, the killer’s motivations too worked into the unfolding relationship drama to withstand psychological scrutiny considering his crimes’ apparent randomness.
- Karl Delossantos @ Smash Cut Reviews
- Excerpt: Dave Franco’s directorial debut isn’t a groundbreaking slow-burn thriller, but it is a competently made, supremely acted, and satisfyingly effective one.

- Herman Dhaliwal @ Cinema Sanctum
- Excerpt: It gets the job done, but there isn’t much particularly memorable or interesting about it. The strong performances are ultimately what keep things engaging.
- James Jay Edwards @ The Big Smoke America
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: an effective horror that introduces something disturbing I will probably never forget.
- Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: With all-around good performances, compelling themes, and an ever-increasing sense of eeriness, The Rental easily ranks among the year’s best genre films.
- Brent McKnight @ The Last Thing I See
- Excerpt: Apaint-by-number horror thriller. However, it does what it does well enough, knows not to overstay its welcome, and a fantastic cast ensures the film at least remains watchable throughout.
- Jared Mobarak @ JaredMobarak.com
- Excerpt: [Franco] shields his characters from a very real nihilistic fear for their physical fragility by igniting their abstract fears around love, integrity, and secrecy.
