This is a nasty and morally repulsive film. Full Review |
|||
|
It is universally terrible in virtually every department, save for the creepy charisma displayed by young Ferland. Full Review |
|||
|
One of those movies that's bad enough to make it worth seeing. Full Review |
|||
|
This is one of the least scary, dumbest movies I’ve seen in a long time. Full Review |

|
On the strength of Case 39, Zellweger could easily play den mother to a brood of hillbilly psychos in a film by Rob Zombie. That would be horror worthy of the name. Full Review |

|
Stale reheat of the creepy kid genre. No point investigating. Case closed. Full Review |
|||
|
A deftly made horror thriller with plenty of scares, Case 39 may be predictable and somewhat heavy handed, but it ticks all the boxes for the genre. Full Review |

I'm sure it will do decent business among the undemanding weekend-horror crowd and Zellweger fans when it eventually sees the light of day. Nobody else need apply. Full Review |
