Reviewer Rating Review
Movie Waffler Eric Hillis90(full review)
Bryan Lienesch90 - From the director branded by his famous plot twists and showing us things that aren't what they really seem, how's this for a twist? An underdog film from a household name director that's been in a slump recently that is genuinely unsettling yet riveting, creepy yet human, and terrifying yet sincere.

Le Anne of Tinsel And Tine80 - Shyamalan manages to encompasses EVERY GENRE in this movie. Every one. And I think he does it brilliantly! Had I gone in to this expecting a straight horror, or thriller, I may have been disappointed. Somehow he mixes, horror, thriller, fairy tale, romantic comedy, dark comedy, family film, sci-fi, first person docu-style, mystery, drama, and even a little bit of action by some great local stunt actors.

Sober Film Critic James Brown70 - Reminiscent of older horror films half a century ago stylistically while simultaneously embracing the current undying trend of the mockumentary scary movie, Shyamalan's The Visit blends the better elements of the horror genres of the present and yesteryear to make a rather potent thriller.
