You keep waiting for more to happen, or be going on, with David, or for his past to play into the story, but these things don’t happen. Go to Full Review
Dennis Harvey Variety 06/16/2022
Competent performances and a slick veneer make this revamp go down easily enough. Go to Full Review

The Good Neighbor does seem to have a few issues in the details of the narratives, especially regarding the big twists and moments which sometimes don’t make a lot of sense. Go to Full Review

2/5
Rhys Meyers does what he can, but this is only made watchable by Stefan Ciupek's noirish photography. Go to Full Review
Carla Hay Culture Mix 07/10/2022
The Good Neighbor should really be titled The Evil Neighbor Who Manipulates a Lousy Journalist to Make Stupid Decisions in Covering Up a Horrible Crime. That's the movie's entire plot, in case people don't want to waste time watching this junk. Go to Full Review
Ryne Clos Spectrum Culture 06/23/2022
The twists and plot points are often exceptionally convenient and always very predictable. Go to Full Review

Craig R. @zsrule65 Sep 13 I thought more was going to happen. I felt as if too much was missed opportunities for the production to really take advantage of key moments, however they seemed to have been totally missed See more Andrea S Feb 9 It had potential but too many contrived events and predictable outcomes. meh See more Lauren W Jan 23 This movie could have been great but it almost put me to sleep instead. It’s weird that David doesn’t catch on to Robert’s, anything but subtle, crush on him, and just keeps going with it… like Robert sucked on David’s thumb “to get the infection out” and then David buys him a grill to apologize for getting mad. It’s almost like he is leading him on lol. I mean he couldn’t tell that he was jealous of Janine and then Venessa?! It’s a weird movie all in all and very boring and it’s very awkward, dull, and downright dumb! It had its moments of oh it might be getting good, and then it just lets you down. It’s very long and drawn out. After the first 30 minutes, I was wishing for it all to be over soon. It had really great potential but they failed to deliver. See more Ashley X @ashleyxo 11/17/2024 Wow pretty awesome movie. Totally unexpected thriller. Really great plot, acting, everything! Glad I took a chance on this one. See more Jeffrey P 08/27/2024 The surprises and twists are few and far between after the catalyst event in this suspense drama. See more Rhett B 08/24/2024 Stupidest movie I have ever seen. Boring and moronic. BOO!! See more Read all reviews
