While this film teases its viewer with some slightly eerie moments and sudden scares, the majority fall flat and cheap.

Ouija commits the crime of taking itself too seriously while also being an incredible bore.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jul 18, 2022

The planchette (the ouija's triangular pointer) is aimed at "No."

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 2, 2021

At best it operates as time filler.

| Original Score: D+ | Jul 17, 2020

It has no memorable characters, no memorable ideas, and indifferent acting. It's not bad enough to be funny or campy. Watching it is like staring at a dumb board for an hour and a half.

There are rent prices in Monopoly that are more frightening.

| Original Score: 1.25/5 | Jul 19, 2019

A completely by-the-numbers spookfest that suffers from perhaps the worst possible fate for a film in this genre -- it's rather boring.

| Original Score: D | Jan 25, 2019

Ouija works on the level of something that delivers basic jolts on a regular basis, but it lacks the internal logic to develop momentum or suspense.

| Jan 10, 2019

Don't wait for the planchette to move, form questions or play it - go ahead and burn the damn thing.

Films like Ouija don't only disappoint me, they make me angry. Ouija is the kind of film which lacks passion, inspiration, and any shred of respect for the audience.

While the atmosphere works and the ending pulls something clever out from under a clich horror plot, the end effect suggest something better could have been done with the source material.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 8, 2018

Ouija is a disaster of a film; some kind of monster that embodies everything wrong with both modern horror

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 2, 2017

The culprits are all there: stiff acting; badly written, overly expository dialogue; loud music and jump scares used to cover the lack of real tension; and a cast of characters who just keep on doing dumb things.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Nov 21, 2017

For a movie that is about the perils of summoning sinister specters, the film itself could have been scarier.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 11, 2017

Ouija never goes beyond what it obviously is: a quick, cheap Halloween throwaway that hopes to sell as many board games as it does tickets. Do not fall for it.

| Original Score: 1/4 | May 9, 2017

While the rote screenwriting doesn't kill the dark spirit of the world's creepiest board game, it doesn't channel it, either.

The cinematic equivalent of a sleeping pill...

| Oct 9, 2015

A supernatural horror brought to you by Michael Bay and Hasbro and released just in time for Halloween proves just as soulless as you might imagine it to be.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 10, 2015

The fun but predictable nature of Ouija will have you laughing in places where it probably wasn't intended.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Mar 4, 2015

"Ouija" is one of those low-octane horror flicks you watch once and forget.
