Critics Consensus

The Owners will prove excessively mean-spirited and over the top for some, but should be just pulpy enough for genre enthusiasts up for some home-invasion thrills.

Donald Clarke

Irish Times

Williams and her contemporaries are excellent. The senior actors do, however, steal the show. It's lovely to see both having such a disreputably good time.

Rated: 3/5

Leslie Felperin

Guardian

Berg, who has worked mostly in French TV and makes his feature debut here, has a knack for ratcheting up suspense and finessing the technicalities in order to maximise the creepiness.

Rated: 3/5

Anton Bitel

Sight & Sound

From this chaotic clash between different classes and generations, a genre-distorted picture emerges of contemporary Britain where property is in the hands of senior citizens, and the have-nots are forced to keep living with their elders.

The Owners is a strange oddity, curiously unhinged but entirely forgettable.

Rated: D+

You never know what’s going on behind closed doors, The Owners tells its audience and, for your own sake, you really don’t want to find out.

The film, with all its scares, more or less cuts a fine figure. [Full review in Spanish]

Yes, it's bad in the end. It has a good premise, but not well maintained and off the rails half way

La película es verdad que deja unos cabos sueltos o preguntas sin responder pero aún así la recomiendo, no te esperas lo que pasa y de verdad como fan del género me dejo estrangulando a la almohada por los nervios. No está mal

Olha o que tem de melhor neste filme são as atuações dos dois atores idosos, e é isso que leva as 2 estrelas, porque do resto foi uma decepção. Achei que o roteiro poderia seguir para qualquer linha, mas não ficar numa mesmice de clichês e motivos rasos.

A group of friends decide to invade the property of an elderly rich couple. However, the robbery becomes a nightmare for these inexperienced thieves as they become easy targets. Unexpectedly, the couple reveals to be two manipulative predators with dark intentions. "The Owners" is a home invasion thriller that bets all the cards in the surprise element. An entertaining story showing us that sometimes hunters become the hunted!

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

incredibly boring, predictable and i felt like the elderly couple whom were psychotic / killers / mentally ill / unhinged or whatever has already been done before in the 2015 movie ‘The Visit' (when a sister and brother go to see their estranged grandparents only to discover that something is very wrong with them and they become very scared by their bizzare behaviour) and i could very easily see the same trope here unfolding as soon as the movie started, lol. 😅🙄
