Owen Gleiberman Variety In its fevered low-budget way it's just clever enough to do what it sets out to do. It gives toxic masculinity its just desserts. Nov 4, 2017 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times "Bad Match" effectively explores the everyday horror that comes from people treating their fellow human beings as interchangeable playthings. Nov 2, 2017 Full Review John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter ... Match clearly only aspires to be a thriller with a surprise or two up its sleeve. On that front, it's adequate. Nov 1, 2017 Full Review Kat Hughes THN Fresh, clever, and ever so slightly twisted, Bad Match offers a modern take on the one-night-stand-gone-bad story, one that is sure to get everyone talking. Rated: 4/5 Aug 29, 2018 Full Review Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files I thought the premise had potential, but Bad Match exceeded my expectations. This was a lot of fun and definitely worth checking out for thriller fans. Oct 10, 2017 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film It's still an impressive film and an impressive calling card which one hopes will see Chirchirillo go on to bigger things. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 31, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Gavriel J What a movie brilliant captures the audience so brilliant plot twist a phenomenal movie it twists your mind Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/25 Full Review Audience Member There’s always a good match for people and there’s a very bad match…. Harris is a young man; very successful with a good job, friends, and seems to excel when it comes to dating many women Then he meets his latest match on a dating app named Riley She seems perfect and the whole package as far as meeting someone special But the terror starts when she starts becoming so clingy it’s overtaking Harris’ entire life Plus she’s hiding something very sinister Is it Harris’ own fault he blows her off making her feel insignificant and just a quick lay? This shows the horrors of modern dating and how out of control it gets But it reminds us that there are truly some unstable people out there who don’t take rejection well and they’ll do anything to get what they want Ok so maybe the critics are over praising this a tad; this really has the makings of more of a lifetime thriller Not too many big names in here but the actors are believable enough given the situation There’s also a presence of toxic masculinity throughout and showing that a guy like Harris can have things handed to him if he doesn’t change his ways given how he lives We shouldn’t treat people as interchangeable playthings either Finding romance or just having fun can still lead to dangerous situations So yeah this is a tad overrated but still worth a look Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/24/25 Full Review Adam E I liked the movie. The ending is good. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/05/24 Full Review Alexander B This is the best thriller I've seen in a decade and it is a terrific displaying of the dangers of modern technology especially in dating. It gradually builds suspense and when you think it can't get scarier it still manages to. The final scene left me speechless and my jaw dropped. If you want a great thriller that is very relevant to are time you'll love this film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/24 Full Review Emilliano Jr S Low budget but decent, watchable. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/22/23 Full Review John S Movie we forgot about until recently. When revisiting this film, it was enjoyable during this current modern time. I know I deleted my Tinder app after watching this film. It is at a 100% because only 8 critics liked it positively. There is no way in hell that this movie should be triple digits. Still enjoyable and classic but come back down to earth. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
