Becca James Chicago Reader Brutal violence abounds in these coastal mysteries, but they're not all show. Dec 30, 2020 Full Review Amy Nicholson FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) Incredibly violent and very fun and very strange. Feb 15, 2020 Full Review Rex Reed Observer Any film that opens quoting William Shakespeare and Beyoncé is meant to be regarded with skepticism and giggles, but this dog gets sillier by the minute. Rated: 0/4 Feb 14, 2020 Full Review Dallas King Flick Feast The most terrifying thing called Come To Daddy to appear on screen since the Aphex Twin video! Rated: 3/5 Nov 11, 2022 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review It's all more moving than you would expect. Rated: 3.5/4 Feb 21, 2022 Full Review Alex Behan Stuff.co.nz A taut, well-executed film.

Julian P Weird, gorey, but entertaining. Kinda like if the Coen Bros made a mad slasher movie. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/20 Full Review John W An ever-changing blast! It can be rare in this day and age for a film to be completely surprising, but "Come to Daddy" is such a film! Even the guesses made from the trailer won't at all prepare you for what's in store! A fun, unexpectedly moving thriller with hilarious performances and cheeky bits of gore! Go in cold and you'll have so much fun! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/20 Full Review Jeremy A Enjoyed it. Not too many moving parts. 4* Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/15/24 Full Review Audience Member I’m confused at the high rating of this film. It wasn’t scary, rarely funny but it was weird. I don’t think it’s terrible but definitely not a 75%. The end 30min was pretty violent for people interested in that. The haircut Elijah woods is rocking is beyond ridiculous lol. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/05/24 Full Review Ashley M Elijah Wood is exceptional in every way and really draws you in with his incredible performance. This movie has so many twists and turns that always have you wondering what's going to happen next. It's funny, raunchy, violent, and all around weird in the best ways. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/04/24 Full Review Stoner J It's actually pretty good and bloody. Suspenseful as well. Elijah Wood never convinced me in any role since the Good Son but the movie was good so he gets a pass. The very ending is a tad incomplete though. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews
