In his directorial debut, Jed Hart takes bold creative swings and refuses to lead his story to a predictable outcome.

Irish Times

Pitches the tone perfectly. The build from irritation to fury to desperation progresses at a steady pace. Black Hitchcockian humour ... is supplemented by Ward’s comic turn as a bumbler who offers his pal charmingly hopeless assistance

Rated: 4.5/5

Louisa Moore

Screen Zealots

The film milks its relatable and unsettling premise for all its tension in the first hour before unfortunately unraveling in the final act. Still, it’s a confident and tightly observed, slow-burn thriller about the horrors hiding in everyday life.

Surprisingly effective horror movie that is a descent into madness that would make any Lovecraft fan proud. A scary and funny watch.

Rated: 8.5/10

Warped Perspective

There are some issues with Restless, but its lead actress is never in doubt, and one of its key strengths lies in showing just how quickly a lack of sleep can erode your sanity.

Rated: C

It was a little movie with so little going on but gave me all the intended feelings. I felt disturbed and restless and I could relate to her madness. Good acting.

What a great little film this is. Most people can relate to the situation too. I know I can. Brit film making at its gritty finest.

Excellent...I love movies from the UK. They don't have trash like the US.

I could really relate to the main character. All of us have experienced an annoying neighbor, but not to this extent. The revenge part of it was satisfying. Fantastic movie!

it feels very unfinished, and is pretty much a waste of time in this state. with an actual third act and a little better pacing, it could have been a lot better. perhaps if they leaned into comedy a bit more then the ending would have felt like a decent resolution, but it's not a satisfying end to what is otherwise a serious movie.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars
