Leave your thoughts about The Roommate.
| Boxoffice MagazineJohn P. McCarthyWhat's most memorable about this plodding thriller are the copious amounts of foundation and lip gloss. |
| IGN MoviesJim VejvodaLabeling The Roommate a psychological thriller is like calling the Twilight films horror movies because they have vampires and werewolves in them. |
| Bangor Daily News (Maine)Christopher SmithIt explores that roommates can be, you know, like a total drag sometimes. |
| Reel Times: Reflections on CinemaMark PfeifferThe Roommate has the seed of a promising thriller in its premise yet never taps into the anxiety of discovering that the person designated to share your space makes you uncomfortable. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderYou can follow every dull detail and predictable plot device without ever glancing up from your cell phone. |
| Entertainment WeeklyKeith StaskiewiczA far-below-par thriller that desperately wishes it were a different movie - a longing it shares with the audience. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekA thrill-free thriller...which dredges up every cliche of the genre and then bungles each and every one of them. |
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfAn unimaginative, unbearable moviegoing event...Crazy bitch, PG-13-o-nized cinema deserves a more captivating representation than these two wet-lipped paper dolls. |

| Metromix.comMatt PaisYou want it to be satisfyingly stupid, and it is. A sense of humor about garbage like this goes a long way. |
