Christiansen's witless, badly acted thriller is a throwback to the early 1990s.

Bunk.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 9, 2011

A disaster from start to finish.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 8, 2011

There are some interestingly nasty moments and some chills, but it's predictable and derivative.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 7, 2011

The Roommate can't be taken seriously - for all Meester's genuine efforts, it's basically moronic games with the mentally ill - but it also misses the opportunity to go for broke, into a zone of full-tilt trash that might at least have been some fun.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 7, 2011

This is trash of the tamest variety which elicits a few mild shudders at most.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 6, 2011

The clichés come thick and fast in this ponderous thriller.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 4, 2011

Further impediments to this film's credibility are the facts that all the actors appear too old to be playing college students and the characters live on a campus that is eerily deserted.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Feb 11, 2011

Kelly and Meester hit their marks and look pretty doing it, while supporting players Cam Gigandet, Billy Zane and Aly Michalka fade into the background so blandly that viewers will never remember they were there.

The movie is exploitative schlock; both its
 stars -- particularly Meester, who has something, although she herself has 
perhaps not yet figured out what -- deserve better.

No scares, no gore, no boobs, no anything: The Roommate plays like a thriller that's already edited itself for airplanes.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 7, 2011

"The Roommate'' is dumb about psychology and suspense.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Feb 6, 2011

The Roommate - the umpteenth uncredited remake of 1992's Single White Female - sucks bad, real bad.

| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Feb 5, 2011

Apparently the filmmakers didn't realize pretty faces, blood and alcohol don't automatically make a good horror movie. Well, at least they got a decent soundtrack out of it.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 4, 2011

We could not possibly care less.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 4, 2011

It's the stuff of a late-night channel-surfer's dreams. The film's sure-to-be-brief theatrical release is a mere stopover on the way to basic-cable eternity.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 4, 2011

Unfortunately, The Roommate is too timid to make an impression of any kind.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Feb 4, 2011

Its most fiendish moment comes when one girl yanks out another's bellybutton ring. Not that -- anything but that!

| Feb 4, 2011

With few scares and minimal characterization, The Roommate is really just a far-below-par thriller that desperately wishes it were a different movie -- a longing it shares with the audience.

| Original Score: D | Feb 4, 2011

If ever a thriller were to inspire a collective "eh," it's got to be "The Roommate." It's not a good movie, by any means, but it's also not bad enough to have fun hating on.
