Critics Consensus

Homewrecker's occasionally distracting budget constraints are outweighed by its solid casting and admirably taut construction.

Fundamentally, it never finds a convincing pitch.

Honestly, you'll feel as trapped in Linda's not-so-funhouse as Michelle. At least you'll have an easier time getting out.

[Essoe] rides an emotional rollercoaster throughout the film that's frequently extraordinary.

2.5/4

...the full-bodied performances of [Alex] Essoe and [Precious] Chong go a long way, not least because the film is a two-hander that takes place primarily in one location.

It reverts to tried-and-tested fare at its close which may smack of overfamiliarity.

3/5

A short, sharp black comedy from Canada, Homewrecker (directed by Zach Gayne) is a cautionary tale about making friends too easily.

This is a nerve wracking movie…it is realistic enough to put yourself in this situation, though unlikely that the house was “Fort Knox”…I had to turn it off before bedtime because it was so disturbing, even a little funny which added to it being so disturbing. I thought the acting and writing were decent. I don’t think this is a movie to take too seriously because it has a cult like energy.

I found it funny, yet also sad. I liked it, though, I although I felt sad for the homewrecker.
