Subscribes to the notion that Hollywood entertainment consists of hammering the senses until the viewer has lost any semblance of intelligent thought.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 18, 2022

A film that bungles the essence of romantic relationships, comedic timing, and preternatural thrills.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 29, 2019

Odd Thomas has one really good thing going for it, and that's Anton Yelchin. After that, there's not much there.

| Original Score: F | Aug 8, 2019

Has enough character to be an entertaining ride despite the occasional narrative stumble

| Aug 5, 2019

Yelchin's performance and the plot as a whole, as well as the mix of romance and quirky comedy horror makes the story interesting to follow and the ending hard to predict.

| Aug 2, 2019

Odd Thomas is one paranormal investigator I cannot wait to watch in action again.

| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Oct 12, 2018

Odd, but oddly entertaining nevertheless.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 18, 2017

I've never read a Koontz novel, but I don't think his target audience is pre-teens. Sadly, I'm not sure anyone much older would find the [film] to be more than novelty.

| Original Score: C | Mar 9, 2016

...easily stands as Sommers' most accomplished work to date.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 29, 2014

Nightmarish imagery, violence abounds in dark-humored tale.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 17, 2014

Even if "Off Thomas" would have likely had a more fruitful life on the small screen, it is still an enjoyably fast-paced way to spend 96 minutes—with a few additional surprises up its sleeve.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 24, 2014

The film fails to establish a consistent tone and never becomes truly funny or scary as a result.

| Mar 21, 2014

The best combination of scares, comedy, romance, eye-popping special effects and good ol' sass since 1990's "Ghost." At any rate, its a lot better than 1996's "The Frighteners."

| Original Score: A- | Mar 8, 2014

It feels smaller and more rushed - and less plausible - than it should, but Anton Yelchin is charming, and the snappy comic tone sometimes works.

| Mar 7, 2014

After Van Helsing, the first G.I. Joe and the Mummy movies, filmmaker Stephen Sommers just about keeps his excessive action instincts in check for this offbeat supernatural comedy.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 7, 2014

The film never really veers enough away from Buffy The Vampire Slayer territory to mark it as a serious groundbreaking genre contender.

| Mar 5, 2014

captures the feel and essence of Dean Koontz's writing

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 3, 2014

[Stephen] Sommers might be the worst director working who's not Uwe Boll, who at least has accidental charm.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 1, 2014

Odd Thomas is a much better film than it's non-release would suggest. Hopefully one day it'll find it's audience and people will appreciate it for something other than just being better than Phantoms.

| Original Score: B | Feb 28, 2014

Odd Thomas should have been a scary horror movie with comic overtones, or a flat-out comedy with horror overtones. Instead, Sommers opts for a live-action version of a dumbed-down Scooby Doo adventure.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 28, 2014
