Award-winning actors Kelly Macdonald (No Country For Old Men) and Damian Lewis ("Billions," Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood) star in a dark comedy thriller about a seemingly average suburban family with a juicy secret: they are vampires. In the light of day, the Radleys might seem normal, but they can only abstain from their natural cravings for so long until the bloody truth bubbles to the surface and turns their quiet country life upside down.

Variety

“The Radleys” is presented with an unobtrusive visual plainness, which never evolves, and often manifests as a lack of energy.

Euros Lyn, whose TV work is usually fast, vibrant and lively, doesn't seem to be able to get a handle On this at all, but he's not helped by an anaemic, joyless script that's managed to suck all the life out of Matt Haig's sprightly novel.

Rated: 2/5

An entertaining massacre, although without many ideas of its own. [Full review in Spanish]

The most impressive element of The Radleys is that, thanks to its talented cast and smart tweaks to the original story, you'll care for this family come the inevitably bloody finale.

Rated: 4/5

Casey's Movie Mania

Damian Lewis' scene-stealing dual role offers some bites in this decent, darkly funny vampire comedy-horror.

As the tone lurches from deadpan fun to darker developments, The Radleys ultimately bites off more than it can chew.

I cannot believe I actually watched all of it. For such a good cast, this was beyond disappointing. So much so I have never felt the need or want to add a review before, until now.

Absolute rubbish, weak plot, not funny or scary, worst film I’ve seen in years, despite the hype, would have given it no stars if I could. Feels more of a drama than comedy or horror story. The whole production felt as if a group of "Film Production" students put this together on a shoestring budget, with the biggest cost seemingly an old RV. It felt as if a group of students, friends and family made up the whole production. Whilst the actors did the best they could, they were unable to breathe any life into this utterly lifeless script that doesn't know what genre it's trying to fit into. You may even fall asleep when watching, some audience members did.

Absolute rubbish, weak plot, not funny or scary, just weak….worse film I’ve seen in years, despite the hype, would have given it no stars if I could, one hour 58mins too long!

This movie could have been a lot of fun — but it couldn’t decide what it wanted to focus on. EVERY character has a subplot and the film can’t commit to fleshing out any one of them with any satisfaction. A great premise that crumbles under the weight of too many intentions.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
