What to Know

Critics Consensus

Another claustrophobic thriller that Joel Schumacher can churn out in his sleep, Trespass is nasty and aggressive, more unpleasant than entertaining.

Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online It gets increasingly worse as it progresses, heightened by terrible acting all around and a poor script. Rated: F+ Sep 8, 2017 Full Review Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com Starting with writer Karl Gajdusek's inane screenplay, the film is a hodgepodge of clichs that gets worse and worse as it goes along. So bad it's almost wonderful, this is one motion picture that almost needs to be seen to be believed. Rated: .5/4 Jan 27, 2012 Full Review Philip Wilding Empire Magazine Cloth-eared dialogue saps the tension, while the plot twists with the likelihood of a Brett Ratner rehearsal session. Leave your disbelief at the door. Rated: 2/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Daniel Barnes Dare Daniel A mindlessly perfunctory and progressively annoying 1A thriller that barrages you with standoffs, fake-outs, double-crosses and twists, twists, twists! Rated: 1.5/5 Sep 5, 2023 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review As home invasion movies go, Trespass is a bad one, so bad even Cage’s usual over-the-top routine fails to eke out some entertainment value. Rated: 1/4 Mar 7, 2023 Full Review Brandon Collins Medium Popcorn Incredibly entertaining. Nic Cage was at a 15 in this! Rated: 3/5 Jan 27, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Melissa L I thought this was a very good movie and I don't know why it has such low ratings. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/17/25 Full Review Christina F I expected the film to be worse, but the beginning captivates you and gets your full on attention and it's good! Worth a watch. However with that being said at the end your left annoyed with all the characters and stupidity of the whole thing. Very annoying movie.. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review R. M Worse movie ever! The writers are PATHETIC. The post is RIDICULOUS. The actors should be very embarrassed Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/25/25 Full Review RICK S Love Nichole, but this movie is really bad. Starts out okay, but that drags so badly, that a 90-minute movie seems like 3 hours. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/15/25 Full Review Jeffrey P The cast makes it and sells it. Overcasted for such a basic story that meanders along comfortably as slightly above average towards an ending that does not shock. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/25/24 Full Review Paolo M I'm from Italy and I'm not surprised to read that in my country it was directly distributed on home video. mediocre thriller in which there is not a moment of tension. There are no creative ideas in any technical sector, it looks like a TV film. Maybe Ben Mendelsohn's interpretation can be saved but at this point I'm not even sure...
