Critics Consensus

The Last House drags a capable cast through an increasingly repetitive narrative without delivering the suspense or thematic depth its premise demands.

Even if Lee and Moura work overtime to sell the terrifying scenario these parents find themselves in, ridiculous lines and worse decision-making takes us out of the moment.

2/4

There’s nothing to tether yourself to, no real narrative anchor point that’s anything more than a discombobulated message of the power of family.

The film is most compelling throughout as a straightforward domestic drama, with increasingly fraught family dynamics lending proceedings a baseline of credibility even as whatever’s happening outside the house remains largely inscrutable.

5/10

A promising sci-fi survival thriller that works best as a family-in-confinement story. Moura and Lee are solid, but the film loses focus when it reveals its mystery, ending with generic creatures and a disappointing third act.

4/10

The premise is intriguing but its lack of individual character development in a claustrophobic environment is almost as frustrating as the idea of igniting the battery of an old Pontiac Firebird after five years.

It takes itself too seriously, feels repetitive, and wastes the talents of its stars

Not as bad as some of the comments are saying. Some potential plot holes and missing pieces but also some “overlooked by the audience metaphors”. Interesting enough for a casual movie . You’ll definitely yell at the characters through the screen over some dumb decisions but entertaining enough.

Achei bom o suficiente para entreter, e ruim o suficiente pra ser esquecível, talvez uma boa pra assistir uma vez e esquecer
