| Screen RantPatrice WitherspoonIn the end, Goodnight Mommy contains a great balance of intrigue, shock, and entertainment. The film also captures the need for a mother’s love and truly thrives when it settles into the more intricate and intimate part of its storytelling. The cast does an incredible job conveying these underlying themes in addition to leaving enough open for audiences to interpret and figure out on their own. |

| IndieWireChristian ZilkoIt’s a film that seemingly aims to be average, but unlike so many other remakes, it actually achieves that goal. |
| VarietyMichael NordineWatts, a veteran of the genre despite never quite being a scream queen, is delightfully disturbing in a role that requires her to mask her character’s true nature as well as her face. |
| We Got This CoveredJackson LangfordWith gripping performances from the Crovetti brothers to keep us intrigued enough to keep us watching until the end, Goodnight Mommy still manages to unmask some thrills — even if the strength of its source material ties it down. |
| Paste MagazineJim VorelAny time Goodnight Mommy tiptoes toward the brink, there’s a hand waiting to yank it back toward mundanity. |
| Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayFans of the first Goodnight Mommy may find it a pale, pointless copy. Newcomers, though? They should be suitably creeped out … but, alas, not wrecked. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisKyle Warren’s screenplay is potent enough to generate several moments of suspense, and Watts, an exceptional actor sidelined too often by poor choices, is not the problem here. That would be the decision to jettison the children’s most creative cruelties — and consequently much of the movie’s tension — and a director, Matt Sobel, who’s determined to steer the audience toward a specific interpretation of events. |
| IGNMatt DonatoGoodnight Mommy might be passable as a standalone, but it’s impossible to recommend over the original. Matt Sobel and Kyle Warren venture somewhere new that still doesn’t differentiate nearly enough for its quieter approach. |
| The Hollywood ReporterDavid RooneyMatt Sobel’s overhaul tones down the cruelty and eliminates the more grotesque touches, resulting in a chamber drama that never gets under the skin. |
