What to Know

Critics Consensus

Old has no shortage of interesting ideas -- and writer-director M. Night Shyamalan's uneven execution will intrigue or annoy viewers, with little middle ground between.

Audience Says

Love him or hate him, no one makes movies quite like M. Night Shyamalan -- and no one else could have made Old.

Wenlei Ma News.com.au The story doesn't always stitch together because the characterisations are fleeting. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 7, 2021 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review It is interesting, but definitely walks a tight rope and I imagine some viewers having enough. It would've worked better as a short. Aug 5, 2021 Full Review Ty Burr Boston Globe "Old" is a fiendish idea only partially realized. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 4, 2021 Full Review Rick Bentley KGET-TV (Bakersfield, CA) Shyamalan’s efforts to stretch this into 108 minutes leaves far too many dull lapses. Rated: 0.5/5 Aug 10, 2023 Full Review Zach Pope Zach Pope Reviews A HORRIFYING Concept that will have you leaving the theater contemplating your life & the time you spend in it! Jul 26, 2023 Full Review Manuel São Bento MSB Reviews Old is one of those cases of a remarkably unique, intriguing concept failing to reach its potential due to an overall disappointing execution of too many ideas.
