Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com It's always nice when a movie with little to no buzz sneaks up on you like this one did for me. Rated: 3/4 Oct 5, 2018 Full Review Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter A Crooked Somebody is smarter than the usual thriller. Oct 4, 2018 Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times Sommer, who did fine supporting work on TV's "Mad Men," doesn't prove a distinctive or charismatic enough presence to carry an entire film, especially one as uneven as this. Oct 4, 2018 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue While poking fun at a broad target, this thriller maintains a moderate level of suspense before falling apart in the convoluted final act. Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru A captivating, wickedly funny and provocative satire with a breakthrough performance by Rich Sommer. Rated: 8.88/10 Oct 8, 2018 Full Review Maitland McDonagh Film Journal International Features excellent performances and a plot firmly rooted in relationships rather than stunts.

Audience Member Great story about a kidnapped psychic medium full of twists and turns. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/04/19 Full Review farah r It's not what you'd expect from a film that created little to no buzz but here is a decent, well-crafted thriller that tells an interesting story. A Crooked Somebody might not be fresh or groundbreaking but it offers enough surprises to satisfy its audience. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member not what i expected when i went in to watching this movie but definitely worth the time. the plot is extremely original and was nervous to see what happened almost the whole movie Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member it's tough to watch a movie about a fake medium Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/03/19 Full Review Audience Member Over-rated, pedestrian and far from gripping. Are we sure this wasn't a 1972 made-for-TV movie? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member It's always nice when a movie with little to no buzz sneaks up on you like this one did for me.
