The Killing of a Sacred Deer Audience Reviews

Majorthebys Charming and brutal
MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Serenityinaz12 I like how a bunch of these negative reviews speak for everyone like "this movie disappoints audiences blah blah blah". Shut up and speak for your self. I loved this weird, creepy and disturbing movie. Wonderful change of pace and killer atmosphere
Bulent Keles As bad as it gets. One of the worst movies ever. I feel super annoyed that I've wasted nearly two hours on this nonesense. And one thing to keep in mind; never judge a movie by its rating!!
andrejromic Feel free to categorize it in any way you wish, this movie provides a terrifying, noisy and dark soundtrack throughout its run, a twisted and sick thriller-horror mixed theme which ends up with a mysterious ending. The acting, the speech, and the sound - combined together make an amazing movie. You might have to watch it twice to get the full picture.
ryanscott-79541 Alright, c'mon people! This movie is ridiculously bizarre...more like the Stepford family meets the Anti-Christ, Damien, or some other utter nonsense. Sure the characters displayed anger, hurt, pain, etc, but without any real feeling being transmitted to the audience. If the film had been directed as if the people were real with real feelings and real emotions being expressed, perhaps the viewer would have felt that and could care for the characters. There's nothing terrifying or horrifying about the cool, detached world of the film as referenced in one critic review. Instead, a film that is devoid of emotion translates to the audience as not entertaining. The same review stated that the film was designed to start conversations, to leave viewers startled and shaken. Well, if so, it's not due to any genius but rather to the absurd nature of the film. Few people will like this film.
