sydney sweeney pls don’t act again❤️
Cody Thomas likedThe HousemaidWay to many sexual things to comfortably watch with a partner
Diego Huertas dislikedThe Housemaid2/10 maybe I need to to rewatch but this one just did not hit. The acting felt stale from everyone except Nina and the pacing was all over the place. Just vote just vote… I know they’re gonna pick me so just vote… NINA Iykyk^
- Tate lovedThe Housemaid
Surprisingly great thriller mystery. Kept me on the edge of my seat the entire movie and all three main actors/actresses did a great job portraying their characters. Sweeney and Skelnar had great chemistry. Ending was tough to predict and didn’t disappoint. 8.0/10
Savannah likedThe Housemaidi think i’m gonna die in this house
Lizzie LaFont likedThe Housemaiddidn't read the book, so didn't know what this was about other than my own guess. the first half of the movie was exactly the cliche that i thought it would be until TWIST. unexpected and i liked! better than i thought it would be
- zxki is "meh" onThe Housemaid
I really don't understand the point behind turning topics as serious as this into trivialised money-making gimmicks. There's no way real-life advocates genuinely like or even support this movie. Speaking of advocates, the irony of 'Scooter-riding' Sweeney being given this role... I mean, it's…
Garrett likedThe HousemaidSlow burn and then hits you with a WTF….then another WTF…and another. I audibly gasped a few times along with the whole theater (which was cool). It doesn’t take itself too seriously, which made it more fun. Amanda Seyfried is excellent. If you’re into this sort of film, this is a fun one!

If you read the book, I would say it's about 85% the same. The ending is a little different, less of Nina backstory, Cecelia is a little different and Enzo is not much of a factor. But yes Amanda killed it.
CDCarleigh DansbyBy far the BEST book to screen adaptation since The Notebook! This movie had me shook, covering my eyes, and laughing!
JAJanette ApolonioMovie was great but the movie at the theater kept going black

Sweeney proves here, after Christy, Echo Valley and Reality, that she’s a performer of versatility and, crucially, staying power.

There’s promise to this or that character and in the twists that almsot certainly played better in the novel than Feig manages on screen. But the promise is squandered in a pokey, obvious movie that stumbles towards stupid in the anti-climactic latter acts.

Based on Freida McFadden’s novel, “The Housemaid” rides waves of manipulation and then turns the tables on what we think we’ve just seen, looking at male-female power structures and how privilege can trap people without it.
