The Line is a campus thriller that plunges into the dangerous world of college fraternities and blind adherence to tradition. Alex Wolff stars as Tom, a scholarship student desperate to break free from his working-class background who is charmed by the prestigious KNA fraternity's promises of high social status and alumni connections that open doors. But upon beginning a romance with Annabelle (Halle Bailey), a classmate outside of his social circle, and the manipulative schemes of his fraternity president (Lewis Pullman) unfolding during the hazing of new members, Tom finds himself ensnared in a perilous game of ambition and loyalty.

A propulsively brutal cautionary tale...

For all its comparative lack of insight, there’s something intriguing about the ride, due chiefly to a pair of fascinating lead performances and a fatalistic sense of humor.

Rated: 3/4

New York Times

Berger takes a keen anthropological approach to the rites and rituals of the fictitious Kappa Nu Alpha house, and he makes it so that you can almost smell the stale beer and crumpled Ralph Lauren.

Radio Times

Director Ethan Berger works with a convincing ensemble cast of knuckleheads, offering immersive insight into the bizarre behaviour and toxic bravado of these moneyed young titans-to-be.

With Berger’s grainy cinematography, grim lighting and low-angle shots on Mitch’s scowling face, The Line is a horror show you can’t look away from.

Excellent slow burn thriller. I also thought the script was very smart with just the right amount of humor dripped in at unexpected times. Worth a look, for sure.

This film was so sad but effective. It got its point across. I mean it was just too real. Alex Wolff is the one to watch. I mean the whole cast and crew was perfect. Rest In Peace Angus. Also, Halle Bailey is eye candy. And her character was so funny. One take away from the movie: Money doesn’t make you a man.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Kept waiting for it to get good. Felt more like a Lifetime movie just with good acting. The ending fizzles with nothing but air..

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars
