Noel Murray Los Angeles Times "Look Away" mostly fails as a "killer teen" movie. The pace is too slow, and the mood too somber. Oct 12, 2018 Full Review Jose Solís Common Sense Media Director Assaf Bernstein's version of this in Look Away turns into a slow-paced horror film that aims for depth but delivers cheap thrills. Rated: 1/5 Nov 6, 2023 Full Review Chloe Leeson VultureHound It might not be the savviest horror ever made due to its juvenile messaging, but its clean and cold aesthetics and villainous characters just about manage to pull it through. Rated: 2/5 Apr 11, 2019 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film This is an interesting film whose serious problems shouldn't be allowed to eclipse the good work on display. Nevertheless, you may find it uncomfortable to watch, and not always in a good way. Rated: 3/5 Apr 10, 2019 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews An intriguing premise in search of a much better movie... Rated: 1/4 Jan 25, 2019 Full Review Gaspar Zimerman Clarín The film leaves an unpleasant puritanical aftertaste. [Full review in Spanish] Jan 24, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

abdelrhman . amazing acting. loved the movie, the cast is rlly good the story is very good and so well made Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/12/25 Full Review Gary E Not sure why all the hate on this movie…..it’s a great story with beautiful people. Cast, direction, cinematography and script are all excellent. Yes..a little slow but a great watch thriller. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/25 Full Review Yao J i think the movie is great, no matter what others say, it's my top10 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Chad T India Eisley is good as poor Maria & the wronged airam l. I originally thought this to be a story of a repressed girl who goes over the edge, but it’s really a sinister ghostly horror story based on rejection & revenge. It’s a bit muddled at times, but anger & rage isn’t always directed where it’s supposed to go. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/23/24 Full Review nick s Quite well shot movie, anchored by a capable actor and supported by a good cast. The writing didn't quite stick the landing but it wasn't bad. For its genre it probably could have done with a few more spine chilling moments and a bit of pace. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/09/24 Full Review Matthew L Not by any means a great movie, but I enjoyed many parts of this film. The plot was okay and kept me tied in and there were decent jump scares. Would watch again (maybe) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/10/24 Full Review Read all reviews
