The Housemaid

What to Know

Critics Consensus

A sly throwback to the lurid thrillers that used to dominate multiplexes, The Housemaid cleans up nicely thanks to its wicked sense of fun and a delightfully unnerving performance from Amanda Seyfried.

It’s Feig attempting Park Chan-wook’s Gone Girl and…yeah, I’m good, m’guy. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
It goes to places that might make Hannibal Lecter blink. The darker it becomes, the more implausible it is, but it’s held together by impressive perfomances by Amanda Seyfried, Sydney Sweeney and Brandon Sklenar. Go to Full Review

3/4
It’s a goofily inspired romp through sex, violence, gaslighting, female empowerment, and bloody revenge, its core events centered around two titanically exuberant performances from stars Amanda Seyfried and Sydney Sweeney that are difficult to resist. Go to Full Review

It's cathartic, deliberately camp, and dangerously entertaining. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

3/4
You watch it in a kind of bafflement -- Is this some devilish spoof of steamy thrillers or just another awful example of one? -- and at some point realize that, whatever it is, it's amusing. Go to Full Review

76/100
The Housemaid is energetic, defined by devilishly great lead performances, and a block of twists with a can’t stop won’t stop attitude. If nothing else, it certainly isn’t boring. Go to Full Review
