What to Know

Critics Consensus

Although it falls a fair bit shy of its Hitchcockian ambitions, I Came By gets a major boost from Hugh Bonneville's excellent against-type performance.

John Nugent Empire Magazine It doesn’t always work, but an unexpected, perfectly pitched bad-guy turn from national treasure Hugh Bonneville makes I Came By just about worth stopping by for. Rated: 3/5 Sep 3, 2022 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times A twisty suspense film barbed with social commentary. Sep 2, 2022 Full Review Linda Marric The Jewish Chronicle It wouldn’t be half as interesting without Bonneville’s deliciously macabre delivery, but there are some very interesting ideas floating around, even if not all of them work. Rated: 3/5 Sep 1, 2022 Full Review Daniel Allen Loud and Clear Reviews Babak Anvari is good at creating terror out of unassuming situations, and the first 40 minutes or so of I Came By sees an effective building of tension. Afterwards, though, things start going a little bit downhill. Rated: 3/5 Jul 25, 2024 Full Review Lee Zumpe Tampa Bay Newspapers It’s a gritty takedown of counterfeit upper-class civility, exposing generations of systemic inequality and racism as an aristocratic prejudice. Oct 26, 2023 Full Review Rebecca Johnson Film Focus Online It's ending won't impress all, nor will it's convoluted plot, but many viewers may enjoy I Came By for what it is; a fun little thriller that has big ambitions and a rare villainous performance from Bonneville. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 24, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Danielle b A good thriller with a good storyline and good acting. Shows us how rich powerful white men can be monsters. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/01/24 Full Review prawnda s it's watchable, but by the time the story was at it's climax it kind of felt predictable and generic. i like george mackay but we don't see much of him in this. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review Caitlin W After reading other audience reviews I was expecting to be disappointed. Hugh Bonneville is eerily good at being a sociopath like villain. Overall I was held captive by plot progression and impressed by some of the turns throughout. No regrets in watching. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review Lucifer M While it follows a mystery/thriller trope we’ve seen before plenty of times, it by no means makes it any less tense and anxiety inducing. Great performances all around by its cast makes this film a worthy watch. It has the energy of one of those films that you’re just yelling at your tv dying to see the antagonist get what they deserve, wondering how people could get away with what it’s shown for so long without rising any suspicion by those in authoritative positions. What’s genuinely scary about this film is that things just like this happen every single day while we scratch our heads asking how was it possible they didn’t get caught sooner with the evidence pointed straight towards all of us for all the world to see. Overall it’s definitely a good watch during a late night weekend with friends or spouse; just don’t go in thinking you’re gonna see something completely new in the genre. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/24 Full Review Maka T Quite a hidden gem. Only good your first watch though. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/18/24 Full Review Julie R No idea why this got so many bad reviews. Good thriller with suspense and excellent acting. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
