For five men (Karl Urban, James Marsden, Wentworth Miller, Eric Stonestreet, Matthias Schoenaerts), the opportunity to share a penthouse in the city -- in which to carry on extramarital affairs -- is a dream come true, until the dead body of an unknown woman turns up. Realizing that her killer must be one of their group, the men are gripped by paranoia as each one suspects another. Friendships are tested, loyalties are questioned, and marriages crumble while fear and suspicion run rampant.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Populated with characters as unpleasant as its sleazy storyline, The Loft is uninhabitable for all but the least demanding erotic thriller fans.

Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 02/05/2015
Erotic thrillers are a time-tested genre, but this effort, scripted by Wesley Strick, is neither erotic nor thrilling. Go to Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times 02/05/2015
This new iteration proves such a dour hodgepodge of bad behavior, bald-faced misogyny and ping-ponging alliances, it's more alienating than alluring. Go to Full Review Katie Rife AV Club 02/05/2015
C-
The Loft is a film that can't decide what it wants. It's a male fantasy, and a cautionary tale. It's sleazy in concept, and timid in execution. It punishes its protagonists for their transgressions, then lets them off the hook. Go to Full Review Terry Staunton Radio Times May 2
2/5
The characters are so unlikeable that viewers will be rooting for them all to get their just desserts. Go to Full Review Amanda Greever The Daily Times (Tennessee) 02/01/2019
Unfortunately, its ridiculousness and the in-your-face sleaze factor doesn't leave the viewer feeling anything. Go to Full Review Debbie Baldwin Ladue News 11/01/2018

jack g Dec 2 This movie was not bad for a casual watch. The Cgi is noticeably terrible and first half is rather boring. The movie doesn’t really make you feel tensed or stressed throughout it to call itself a thriller. I didn’t hate watching it but i probably wouldn’t recommend to anyone See more Jonathan O May 18 Absolutely the worst whodunnit thriller movie. See more Leanne M 09/17/2024 I think the movie is worth watching. The actors were all exceptional, and the plot was excellent. See more angela g 07/13/2024 this the worst murder mystery movie I've ever seen but it had great acting great cast a cool twist but the writers felled like they did not care for there movie or the murder mystery plot it just focused on how horrible the 5 main characters are and they are horrible just don't watch this movie See more Steven t @SST609 06/29/2024 A mystery/thriller movie with a solid cast. If only they had a better script. See more Test T 03/31/2024 I watched this on DVD recently. The ideas aren't bad, and the locations and mystery/crime setup are ok as well. The problem for me was the hollow unlikable characters and weak plot. It's the kind of movie which superficially looks quite good on screen, but struggles to maintain the viewers interest when they pay attention to it. I frequently found my mind wandering as I struggled to maintain focus. It's just about watchable, but it falls way short of what I had expected. See more Read all reviews
