Moviegoers are saying
This polarizing film divides audiences right from its opening moments, with viewers either checking out within the first 10 minutes due to weak storytelling or finding themselves gripped by its intense, creepy atmosphere. While some praise its heart-pounding tension and strong cast performances, others feel that even its gory finale can't salvage fundamental narrative problems.

Like most people, I watched this for Pete Davidson, and to keep this short, unlike the 9-hour runtime, "The Home" should have stayed home. The engagement level and story are weak and poorly told. The performances are unintentionally comedic. The horror is cringe-worthy. The camerawork and editing…

watched it for Pete but it was bad
Clay Werner is "meh" onThe Home4.0 - I think we need studios to slow down green lighting retirement home/elderly antagonist horror. It’s becoming a trope & it’s hard to pull off. For the few that have done it well (X, Barbarian) there are more that fail (this, The Rule of Jenny Pen, The Front Room). It’s a hard angle to execute…
Samuel Armer is "meh" onThe HomeThis was decent. Not anything crazy was barely enjoyable but then the last like 10mins happened and it went from being ‘okay’ to then being ‘bad’ to then being ‘so bad it’s laughably enjoyable’ Pete Davidson cannot act man cmon now maybe it’s his face or his voice idk something just doesn’t work…

I was really surprised with this film - it was much better than I was expecting it to be. It’s intriguing and eerie throughout with a strong mysterious vibe. The twist and reveal toward the end is really good and I didn’t see it coming at all. Glad I found this. This is a good watch and I recommend.
Ani N. dislikedThe HomeThere’s a story somewhere in here but directing, pacing and editing were so sloppy, script was bad and score horrible that it got lost in the backseat. Poor Davidson, who I like as an actor, ends up as a casualty. There’s no urgency or creepiness and the end is strangely comedic.
Dark Sun likedThe HomeGot the chance to see this early and it was a mixed bag, but a good one. Part of the fun of the movie is its incessant use of red herrings and its ability to tie them into the plot. The twist at the end was wildly unexpected and played very well, especially the last 20 minutes.

I knew from minute 10 or before that the movie wasn't going to be good. Only because of how the story was made at the beginning! Not even the gore at the end saved the movie.

Davidson shows he may not have the chops to carry a horror film, while DeMonaco fails to deliver any thrills this time. Ultimately, it’s a by-the-numbers effort that proves quite disappointing.

It seesaws between creepy and dippy, although it pulls no punches in its indictment of the American elder care system.

Pete Davidson does solid enough work in a more dramatic role and the supporting cast does the best they can with the material, but The Home collapses under its muddled messaging, overly familiar and sometimes ridiculously heavy-handed imagery, and a lack of tension.
