Critics Consensus

Beautiful scenery and cinematography can't save Turistas from its wooden acting and stale and predictable plot.

Brian Tallerico UGO It's a film that's more likely to leave you confused and angry than frightened or inspired that something positive is happening in the horror genre. Mar 24, 2007 Full Review Joshua Rothkopf Time Out Rated: 1/6 Feb 3, 2007 Full Review Dallas Morning News Rated: D Jan 6, 2007 Full Review Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh The grotesque special effects and motivations for the mayhem make it a strong example of a redundant premise, though it can't escape the subgenre's failings. Rated: 3/5 Sep 24, 2023 Full Review Emma Wolfe SpookyAstronauts One of the more realistic horror movies I've seen in a long time... I think that the themes, the idea of the storyline and the acting was on point. Rated: 7/10 Apr 16, 2021 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews An unpleasant horror thriller about revolting thrill-seeking tourists in Brazil.

John H Seemed a little predictable at first, but, for me, it was well paced and the tension / scare factor was delivered well. Would watch again. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/30/24 Full Review Colin M 'Turistas' (aka "Paradise Lost"). Naive tourists step away from the beaten track in Brazil and find themselves in difficulties. (In the style of 'Deliverance' and 'Wolf Creek'). Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/04/24 Full Review Justin W A getaway to nightmare paradise, it has done enough to keep you in for the ride. Just enough... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/24 Full Review RedGodMasterofRed g It is a pretty decent movie that I'm surprised was so hated the acting is decent probably better than most horror movies it's a concept you don't see as often as your typical ghost or slasher movie it's not super scary though Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/18/23 Full Review Eric M Everyone who rated this movie poorly is nuts. Great streaming watch with a date who likes thrillers! Scenery, action, and suspense kept us on edge of our seats. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/03/23 Full Review Courtney K this was fine; typical 2000's teenagers on vacation horror flick. it's not groundbreaking, but it's done fairly well, i didn't hate it. although i don't think i'd go out of my way to recommend it to anyone either. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
