In a wealthy enclave, a recently retired newsman has invited his grown children to dinner to announce his intentions to enlist in the nation's new euthanasia program. But when the father's plan goes horribly awry, tensions flare and chaos erupts among his children.

Spectacular. Eco-horror with dark humour and great choice of soundtrack throughout.

Its alright for the 1st half than takes a serious nose dive when their suspense builds up. My biggest gripe with this film is the ending, you know those movies where everything is doomed and theres no saving it? Yeah thats this movie except they fast forward with NO EXPLANATION and somehow everything is a'ok.

I enjoyed this movie. It started out slow but picked up. It wasn't all slice and dice like most horror movies are today, it actually made sense. It had some blood,not to much on the jump scares but had a great concept of how $ and the thought of death can destroy a family. One of the better ones I've seen this year

Dead by B

Caitlin Cronenberg does a decent job directing Humane considering it's her first time as a director, but the movie isn't as near as perfect. The flow of the movie is surprisingly good, but there's quite a few plot holes, the acting is very inconsistent throughout the view and the character development isn't as cured as I wish i would

Cronenberg treats the mansion as an enormous stage set, turning “Humane” into a kind of psychodramatic slasher movie.

Richard Roeper

Chicago Sun-Times

There are some delightfully squeamish scenes — but this is primarily a psychological thriller, an update/variation on The Fall of the House of Usher...

Rated: 3/4

Cronenberg eventually gets a little fun with close-ups of the bloody stuff, but the bulk of this film is surprisingly flat and poorly lit.

Rated: 2/4

Eye for Film

A polished, handsomely produced piece of work delivered with real confidence.

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Common Sense Media

A dystopian sci-fi story, a darkly comic skewering of American capitalism and greed, and a gory horror tale, this bloody movie doesn't always achieve a satisfying balance, but it's never boring.

Rated: 3/5
