The Guest makes a strong case for Wingard as our next great action director.

If The Guest were a colour it would be the neon blue of its title card: a little bit show-off, a little bit retro, but it'll definitely brighten your night.

Wickedly entertaining.

Barrett and Wingard are more about exploring the wish-fulfillment than getting into any deep psychological warfare. Still, the screenplay knows just when to create more menace and move on, and it escalates the craziness right up to the breaking point.

The Guest borrows from other genre pictures with such intelligence and clarity of purpose, it manages to feel fresh, exciting.

A slow-burn approach seems to pose a challenging change-up for the filmmakers, who struggle to build tension as the second acts stretches well past the point when the level of menace should be escalating.

The pleasures of The Guest lie mainly in anticipating how the next expected corner will be turned.

It's not a particularly brilliant conceit, but, not unlike Stevens's beautifully one-note performance, it's evocative nevertheless -- lending the whole movie an aura of pop inevitability, turning its blunt predictability into something of a virtue.

The kind of immediate pop artifact that's sure to keep many veteran filmmakers awake at night.

This 1980s-style movie has wickedly pleasing aplomb. As fantasy escapism, it's brave, colorful and entertaining for audiences who can handle substantial carnage.

One of the many pleasures of director Adam Wingard's tough, fun thriller "The Guest" is seeing Matthew Crawley -- er, British actor Dan Stevens -- serve up a mesmerizing star turn of psycho charm.

...[Dan Stevens] plays wholesome, aloof, seductive, dangerous, psychotic... He nails every single beat.
