Critics Consensus

Marrowbone's effective setting and strong cast can't make up for thinly conceived characters and a story short on genuine scares.

3.5/4

It is a sensational piece of genre subterfuge, the narrative an increasingly byzantine maze overflowing in deft twists and turns.

3/5

There are reminders here - as there were in the recent Irish horror The Lodgers - that the haunted house movie still contains possibilities. Neither will it, however, keep you awake at night like The Orphanage.

4/5

Four siblings move to America with their mother in sunny 1969, make a new friend, and live in a creaky old house. Go watch it before you read anything else.

3/5

The Others is the most obvious touchstone and comparison point and, while Sánchez doesn't come close to that level of artistry, his film showcases a real mastery of tone.

Very dark and quite heavy emotionally. The plot holes near the end bothered me a bit, but overall it was a powerful, emotional film. George MacKay gave an outstanding performance and really went all in. credit to him for that.

I did not see that coming. I'm not sure everything makes perfect sense, but the pieces come together fairly easily after the plot twist (nothing is overly complicated, unlike what some specialized reviewers claimed). My only downside with the movie is the ending (or rather the lead-up to it), which feels weak and rushed compared to the rest. Overall this is a great drama; really depressing.

Great acting, slow-developing plot, scary father in a bricked up room. What's not to like?

It blew my mind, it was unexpected and the plot was different to many recent mistery movies so I was really satisified with the movie, a little bit uncomfortable with the ending but it's still a fine movie
