What to Know

Critics Consensus

A slow-burning spectral thriller, Presence reaffirms that Soderbergh plays with form as deftly as he flits between genres.

Tara Brady Irish Times As with Kimi and Unsane, Soderbergh occasionally has more fun with the constraints than we do. There’s nothing as compelling or creepy as Kristen Stewart’s dance with the unseen in Personal Shopper. Rated: 3/5 Feb 28, 2025 Full Review Christy Lemire FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) I love that after all these decades as a filmmaker, Soderbergh still likes to do these cool little experimental larks. Feb 11, 2025 Full Review Peter Rainer FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's a gimmick... But it's a good gimmick, not one I had really seen before. Feb 11, 2025 Full Review James Croot The Post NZ Come for the fly-on-the-wall look at a family unravelling, stay for the brilliantly conceived long-takes, clever misdirections and surprisingly deep and profound conversations and dialogue. Mar 25, 2025 Full Review Rubén Rosario MiamiArtZine The gimmicky trappings could have worked as a short, but in its compact feature-length form, “Presence” is a bit of a slog. Mar 24, 2025 Full Review Ian Bunting Daily Record (UK) More family drama than frights and fearsome bumps in the night, Presence is a well made film putting personal and group trauma under the microscope that could’ve done with an injection of edgy tension.

Jeremy W A rather boring, but altogether solid contribution to the paranormal genre. I would have rated it lower had the final scene not been absolutely perfect. Salvaged the whole viewing for me. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/08/25 Full Review Jayvaun I’m sorry but it was awful. Scary movies just aren’t scary anymore. Maybe it wasn’t meant to be scary… Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review lester great film., really neat premise. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/25 Full Review Anthony J A novel take on a well worn (and in many cases WORN OUT) genre. Masterfully shot and edited, really cool score and a story that oozes a palpable sense of eeriness. One of the more memorable ghost stories I've seen since The Others. I also appreciate the brisk runtime, not that I'm opposed to longer movies but some stories are more effective in short doses. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/25 Full Review Adam Man this movies weird asf Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/25 Full Review jeanette End sucked but was good until then Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/25 Full Review Read all reviews
