The Roommate can't be taken seriously - for all Meester's genuine efforts, it's basically moronic games with the mentally ill - but it also misses the opportunity to go for broke, into a zone of full-tilt trash that might at least have been some fun. Apr 7, 2011 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

Kelly and Meester hit their marks and look pretty doing it, while supporting players Cam Gigandet, Billy Zane and Aly Michalka fade into the background so blandly that viewers will never remember they were there. Feb 7, 2011 | Full Review…

Instead of attempting to create a unique thriller, the filmmakers chose to make a typical one with bland characters and lackluster twists. Jun 30, 2013 | Rating: 1.0/5 | Full Review…

One dry hump of almost thrills that are incredibly lackluster and void of any sort of suspense or tension. Dec 12, 2011 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

A storyline that unimaginatively rehashes countless pivotal elements from other stalker-themed movies means that the whole production is a dull and pointless exercise that twists and turns in precisely the manner you expect it to. Jul 14, 2011 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It might be genius compared to Single White Female 2: The Psycho, but know that The Roommate is ultimately about as sensitive as that dtv sequel sounds. Jun 26, 2011 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…
