Drop Reviews
Drop squanders all of its imagination on making its foundation as ugly as possible in the mistaken belief that the catharsis would prove more satisfying if the human cruelty were more pronounced.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Apr 25, 2025
Drop isn’t much more than repurposed horror genre tropes but manages to do see within a PG-13 fashion.
| Original Score: C | Apr 25, 2025
the best thing about this movie is it captures the anxiety and fears of modern dating especially online dating

Christopher Landon directs the hell out of this fast-paced popcorn flick that will undoubtedly earn comparisons to Wes Craven's 'Red Eye' but manages to stand on its own two feet just fine.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 23, 2025
Drop may drop the ball when it comes to total credibility, but it plays the thriller game well enough to provide mindless entertainment.

Drop begins as a stiff, paint-by-numbers, Blumhousian affair; but Fahy’s performance, a competent script, and tight direction ultimately buoy the strong premise as the tension flows organically in the final two thirds of the film’s efficient runtime.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 23, 2025
Drop is certainly cheesy and outlandish at times, you’ll even roll your eyes once or twice. But like the most thrilling of those 90s thrillers, you’ll never be bored.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 22, 2025
Remarkable for being such a well-crafted thriller until suddenly it's not. And in such a way that all the good that comes before, of which there is much, self-destructs so thoroughly that it becomes not just irksome but also insulting.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 22, 2025
Despite a promising start and a creative approach in some respects, Drop falters due to the superficial development of certain important situations and its excessive inclination towards comedy. [Full review in Spanish]

Lot of hoes in the plot but who cares - its a fun movie.
Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Apr 22, 2025
It’s exciting to play whodunnit alongside Violet, but it starts to feel a little drawn out... the filler in between feels like it’s getting in the way of a higher intensity narrative.
| Apr 22, 2025
Anchored by a dedicated lead performance by Fahy and energetic direction by Landon, Drop is a solid Red Eye-esque thriller that gets the job done.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 22, 2025
...a high-concept premise that is, for the most part, employed to fast-paced and entertaining effect by Landon...
| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 22, 2025
It feels like an interesting premise, but again, there's not a lot of fun to it.

...the best compliment I can give is that I couldn’t wait for it to be over.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Apr 21, 2025
...Drop, beyond its narrative setbacks, sustains a constant tension thanks to Landon's excellent direction. [Full review in Spanish]

Landon shows a playfully nimble majesty where it comes to balancing suspense, horror, humor, and general human pathos.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 20, 2025
This is a very solid thriller, even if Christopher Landon’s films have been sharper in the past. There’s enough here to make an afternoon matinee worth it.
| Apr 20, 2025
Drop is a good change of pace for Christopher Landon as he capably stretches his directorial muscles from horror comedies to high-concept thrillers. It also benefits from compelling and fun turns from Meghann Fahy, Brandon Sklenar, and Jeffery Self.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 19, 2025
Throw in a pinch of Hitchcock and a dash of De Palma and Landon plates up a deliciously addictive dish.
