Echo Valley Reviews

All Critics Top Critics All Audience Verified Audience
Wendy Ide Observer (UK) Oct 7, 2025
A sinewy, stylish thriller improved by the bruised, understated work of Moore and Gleeson’s enjoyably gung-ho villainy.

A whiff of Hitchcock lingers around Echo Valley...

Brent Simon AV Club Sep 12, 2025 C-
A listless drama that feels like an uninspired adaptation of an already middling piece of beach-read fiction, Echo Valley doesn’t so much tap a vein of mounting tension as just slog along in a weird middle ground, emotionally speaking.

People often throw around the term slow burn whenever a film has pacing issues. It is a signal that the audience needs to be patient in an age where people consume media in shorter and shorter formats, patience is a virtue in limited supply.

Echo Valley is an engaging film built on an intriguing premise. But much like the roof of the house, its script shows cracks. [Full Review in Spanish]

Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) Aug 18, 2025 3/5
Helping your child is just another form of debt that must be collected, but the film keeps the leads apart while fraying the plot with twists and double-crosses. The story lacks a visceral edge.

...a new thriller starring Julianne Moore as a woman in a bad situation that keeps getting worse. Both in emotional, moral, and criminal ways.

Lazy critics sometimes like to rave “A great time at the movies!” No one will say this about “Echo Valley.” It’s a bad time, and not worth it.

Juoianne Moore never gives a bad performance. She continues that streak here.

Echo Valley is successful so long as the viewer remains on the pulpy surface of its premise.

Fantastic performances by Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney. This is a good thriller with a lot of twists and turns that I didn't see coming.

Echo Valley features fantastic performances, haunting visuals, and an escalating series of twists and turns leading to a thrilling (albeit preposterous) conclusion, but it is ultimately let down by a plot that tries to do too much.

Echo Valley does a decent job of showing you the ravaging effects of addiction on a user’s family... [But] in the end, it’s just a cynical plot point in an implausible flick that plays like a wannabe Mildred Pierce on drugs.

Nicholas Bell Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Jul 2, 2025 3.5/5
A satisfying neo-noir led by a sympathetic Julianne Moore, Echo Valley plays like the vicious working class version of Mildred Pierce, proving there's nothing quite as refreshing as a loyal league of lesbians circumventing criminal elements.

Echo Valley is chilling as an emotional drama and thrilling as a mystery to be solved. By working on multiple levels at once, Echo Valley is definitely worth checking out.

Despite committed work from Moore, Sweeney and Gleeson the script makes all the characters super dumb or next level smart on the downlow which significantly reduces the tension at every point it is supposed to be ratcheted up

Fans of Cape Fear, What Lies Beneath and In the Bedroom should lap up British director Michael Pearce’s suspense and twist-filled familial drama.

Sweeney has something special, and “Echo Valley” is a positive sign that, whatever Sweeney has, she’s not coasting on it.

Laura Miller Slate Jun 23, 2025
Echo Valley is a serviceable thriller with an outlandish twist at the end, but the plot often seems at war with what feels like the movie’s true interest: Kate, a woman poleaxed by love.
