We Need to Talk About Kevin

"This movie is chilling. The helplessness the mother feels is consuming. Tilda Swinton is excellent here. Ezra Miller in an unfortunately telling role."

"⭐️2/5⭐️ "We Need to Talk About Kevin" (2011) was honestly excruciating to watch, and not in a good way. It felt emotionally draining, almost punishing, as it dragged you through this relentless, suffocating sense of dread. I get that it's supposed to explore the nature of guilt, trauma, and evil, but it was so heavy-handed and bleak that it left no room to breathe. The performances were great, especially Tilda Swinton’s, but the film’s oppressive tone made it difficult to engage with on any deeper level. I couldn’t wait for it to be over. "

"This was not an easy watch, emotionally speaking. Great acting, good story 10/10"

"Really interesting. Kind of slow, but worth the watch imo!"

"This movie is really… you know I’m unsure how to finish it. Kevin is the definition of a psycho. Props to momma for continuously trying with a kid that must make her want to just curl up in a fetal position and cry. The end is pretty gut-wrenching! "

"Loved it and didn't find it scary or disturbing as so many ppl seem to. It wasn't intended as horror. If you want 'shocking evil kid' in the style of The Good Son, The Orphan, or Case 39... this is not it. It's not about Kevin or what he did. It's nothing if not the struggle of Kevin's mother in dealing with it all after the fact. The anger from the community, her own crushing guilt, PTSD, while still being his mother. #greatacting #greatdirecting "

"This movie was absolutely horrifying. I'm still a little shocked. Very well shot and the lead actress was amazing. "

"Amazing acting."

"A very disturbing, creepy kid film. This one stayed with me for weeks. "

"This movie is so upsetting. Love the through-lines of imagery and sound and Tilda is amazing. But yeah, get ready to be frustrated and disturbed. "
