Critics Consensus

Anton Yelchin is the right man for the title role, but Odd Thomas suffers from a jumbled tone.

Yep, he's an odd one all right. You're likely to get tired of hearing about it pretty quick, though. Go to Full Review

Odd Thomas is an engagingly lightweight and occasionally visually inventive film that should appeal to Koontz fans and anyone else open to his whimsical approach to horror. Go to Full Review
Tirdad Derakhshani Philadelphia Inquirer 02/28/2014
2.5/4
An endearing, witty romantic dramedy-slash-supernatural-thriller about a small desert town in California beset by demonic apparitions and a satanic cabal of deranged would-be mass murderers. Go to Full Review

2/4
Subscribes to the notion that Hollywood entertainment consists of hammering the senses until the viewer has lost any semblance of intelligent thought. Go to Full Review

1/5
A film that bungles the essence of romantic relationships, comedic timing, and preternatural thrills. Go to Full Review

Odd Thomas has one really good thing going for it, and that's Anton Yelchin. After that, there's not much there. Go to Full Review

Chiara T @kia120196 Dec 7 One of the best movie I ever watched. The ending was so sad for me cause i didn't expected her to die, maybe cause I'm in a relationship since almost 5 years and could never imagine my life without him, it made me cry cause I knew he had to live without the love of his life. Not always I can watch a movie without getting annoyed or bored, this one captured my attention from the beginning until the end <3 See more Craig W. @CJWolfe27 Nov 20 Good entertaining movie, worth a watch See more Claudia A @UpperStormtrooper Nov 8 Really rotten? Only 37% See more I Am F @Creepblaster Sep 10 No one can overtake Anton Yelchin as Odd Thomas See more Pat . Aug 28 This was quite the creative ride. The twist and turns were almost unpredictable, and even the ones that seemed to predictable still had a twist within themselves. This movie will leave you on edge the entire time and has a beautiful love story to pair with it. Luckily this love story isn't overbearing on the theme of the movie. I've seen some negative reviews for mentioning how odd he is constantly throughout the movie however, something important to keep in mind is that this is the entire purpose of the movie. It helps build his character and the perception of everybody around him. As to not get into spoilers, I will just say the ending has truly left me fulfilled. See more Amanda H Aug 4 I was bored one day so I watched it & I'm so glad I did b/c this is one of my absolute faves of all time! I'd label it as a Action/Comedy/Horror. I even cried like a big baby with this movie at the end, seriously, lol! Now, I'm a huge horror fanatic & if you are too then I think you'll like this one I promise! If you're looking for something scary, thrilling, gorey, etc., then this isn't for you. It's not scary at all really & maybe 1 or 2 jumps but mainly it's goofy, interesting, gross, suspenseful, & has a love story in it. Watched after Anton passed & when I realized this after watching it, I cried even more. Tragic the way he died! He had a very long career ahead of him in my opinion. He was really just getting started to get some great movies & become somewhat famous!! See more Read all reviews
