Critics Consensus

A Hitchcockian thriller that cleverly utilizes modern technology for its twists and turns, Drop delivers on its pulpy premise while providing a welcome showcase for leading lady Meghann Fahy.

A rewarding watch, this cheesy popcorn thriller entertains down to its last Drop.

The Nightly (AU)

Drop is certainly cheesy and outlandish at times, you’ll even roll your eyes once or twice. But like the most thrilling of those 90s thrillers, you’ll never be bored.

Rated: 3/5

Landon shows a playfully nimble majesty where it comes to balancing suspense, horror, humor, and general human pathos.

Rated: 3/4

Walter Chaw

Film Freak Central

Drop squanders all of its imagination on making its foundation as ugly as possible in the mistaken belief that the catharsis would prove more satisfying if the human cruelty were more pronounced.

Rated: 1/4

Drop isn’t much more than repurposed horror genre tropes but manages to do see within a PG-13 fashion.

Rated: C

Definitely surprised me. I expected a lot of predictability and while there was some, there was actually a storyline that made sense.

Liked the unique storyline and guessing who was calling, but it could have used more humorous dialogue

Drop (2025) had a cool setup and looked great visually, but it just didnt stick the landing for me. The first part pulls you in—theres tension, mystery, and you feel like something big is coming—but then it kind of falls apart. The characters dont really go anywhere, and by the end, I felt like the story had more style than substance. Its not terrible, but it left me wanting a lot more than it gave.
