3/5
It's a shaggy-dog story that spirals into garage Grand Guignol, with Suvari and Rea well-matched in uneasy roles. Go to Full Review

3/6
Gordon has directed drama, such as Mamet's 'Edmond', but also visceral horror movies like 'Re-Animator'. Elements of both are evident in this taut psychological thriller. Go to Full Review
James Christopher The Times (UK) 01/09/2009
3/5
Stuart Gordon's low-budget thriller is so compellingly perverse that it transcends its humble premise. Go to Full Review

A lean, nasty piece of work that deserves a wider audience than it is ever likely to receive. Go to Full Review

Stuck is not only the most entertaining horror flick to hit North American theatres this year, it's arguably the top Canadian shocker of all time. Go to Full Review

Waylon P Aug 20 This movie is just way too boring and the plot is a little ok but just wayyyyyyyyy to boring to watch but definitely would watch this over who watches over Oliver but i don’t really recommend this See more Jerod S 10/08/2023 The true story of a man stuck in a dumb lady's windshield is gold in itself. And even though its not a slick production, Mena is able to make a little something of it. See more 04/04/2020 Grisly, not only in its plentiful visual gore and gallows humor, but in the movie's gruesome depiction of human stupidity and selfishness. See more @c0urtn3y 02/10/2020 ooo this was not what i thought it was going to be; i was very pleasantly surprised! i love this idea... & i think it could be executed better with today's film standards. i wouldn't mind seeing a remake or something similar in the future. See more 01/24/2020 This film was infuriatingly terrible. See more 07/26/2017 A real one trick pony. Yes, you'll feel stuck if you watch the whole thing. For Mena fans only. See more Read all reviews
