Critics Consensus

Steeped in gallows humor, Stuck is a taut, tense examination of a tragic accident.

3/5

It's a shaggy-dog story that spirals into garage Grand Guignol, with Suvari and Rea well-matched in uneasy roles.

3/6

Gordon has directed drama, such as Mamet's 'Edmond', but also visceral horror movies like 'Re-Animator'. Elements of both are evident in this taut psychological thriller.

3/5

Stuart Gordon's low-budget thriller is so compellingly perverse that it transcends its humble premise.

A lean, nasty piece of work that deserves a wider audience than it is ever likely to receive.

Stuck is not only the most entertaining horror flick to hit North American theatres this year, it's arguably the top Canadian shocker of all time.

A real one trick pony. Yes, you'll feel stuck if you watch the whole thing. For Mena fans only.

An excellent and darkly satirical treatment of how we treat the homeless in America. As the situation becomes more and more ridiculous, one realizes how labeling and dehumanizing people based on their circumstances causes self-fulfilling prophecies where they assume the role society has given them.

My wife got a hold of the Netflix que and picked this movie. What a mistake that was! Worst movie I've ever seen. Told my wife if she fires up the desktop ever again I'm taking her to Divorce City.

Obviously not a true story. Brandi accidentally hit a man when she was driving home, the man became stuck in the windshield and she left him to die. There were various incidents where the situation might be uncovered but she avoided them. She became more aggressive in her attempts to keep this under control as the film goes on. The characters were all annoying, you can't really feel mad or sad for anyone, but I have to admit Mena Suvari was pretty good in this film. If you want some brainless fun, maybe this film is for you.
