Kristy Puchko IGN Movies A promising premise sets a solid stage for terror. Oct 19, 2019 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times "Eli" has a strong payoff too with a memorably intense final 15 minutes. But that roaring finish feels like it should come much earlier in the picture. The story ends just when it's finally going somewhere. Oct 18, 2019 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com We have no real idea what's going on through most of Eli, which results in a film that is more often confusing than frightening. Rated: 2/4 Oct 18, 2019 Full Review Trace Thurman Horror Queers Podcast Eli plays things too close to the chest for too much of its runtime, but the fiery finale is mostly worth the wait. Rated: 3/5 Apr 22, 2024 Full Review Rob Hunter Film School Rejects Netflix's latest horror film is among its most surprising and entertaining. Nov 14, 2019 Full Review Andrew Wyatt The Lens Foy and the film's three writers build to an artless, third-act twist that feels like a future case study for cheap screenwriting rug-pulls. Rated: C- Oct 31, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

M E Probably one of the best horror films I've seen. Incredible acting and incredible plot. Ending was magnificent and left me wanting more in a good way. Not over the top scary but makes up for it with the plot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/15/25 Full Review Max M Decided to watch this movie with a few friends, during the start the start of the film was enjoyable learning about his sickness, the start of the procedures are interesting and thrilling with the hallucinations, the movie keeps progressing with basic scares and monsters which eventually leads on to the end (the last procedure, the one that kills eli) the mother and father do not belive this, they go on with the story, suddenly the plot and whole story changes, from a kid with a sickness that is trying to seek help but goes to an evil doctor, ends up bieng an exorsism and eli is a devil and his father is attempting to kill him. the ending really dissapointed me and our friends and pretty much ruined the movie, it felt cheap and shitty. the twist was completely unknown, i had no clue the movie was an exorsism movie and has a shitty story in the grand scheme of things. wouldnt reccomend this garbage. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/11/25 Full Review Roland R Awesome movie 👍👍👍👍 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/25 Full Review Felisabe F Cringe plot. The twist at the end just doesn’t add up. The movie tries hard to make it surprising, but it ends up feeling forced and cringy. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/27/24 Full Review Ato L Absolutely terrible, the begging was watchable but quickly turned into a disappointing and rather stupid ending, wouldn’t recommend… Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Thilde B Filmen var så lort at det havde været bedre at stirrer min væg ned end at bruge 1,5 time på den omgang pis. Hvis den kunne få 0 stjerner havde den fået det. Hvis i nogensinde overvejer at se den skyd dig selv i foden i stedet for, det er nogenlunde samme oplevelse.
