Critics Consensus

Another claustrophobic thriller that Joel Schumacher can churn out in his sleep, Trespass is nasty and aggressive, more unpleasant than entertaining.

F+

It gets increasingly worse as it progresses, heightened by terrible acting all around and a poor script.

.5/4

Starting with writer Karl Gajdusek's inane screenplay, the film is a hodgepodge of clichs that gets worse and worse as it goes along. So bad it's almost wonderful, this is one motion picture that almost needs to be seen to be believed.

2/5

Cloth-eared dialogue saps the tension, while the plot twists with the likelihood of a Brett Ratner rehearsal session. Leave your disbelief at the door.

A mindlessly perfunctory and progressively annoying 1A thriller that barrages you with standoffs, fake-outs, double-crosses and twists, twists, twists!

As home invasion movies go, Trespass is a bad one, so bad even Cage’s usual over-the-top routine fails to eke out some entertainment value.

PHILEI! A classic home invasion movie. The sprinkling of film noirs and film blancs kept the movie interesting. I will say the flashbacks almost hit Ghost Of Mars levels. CT5 Worst Criminals tho. Nic Cage gave a solid performance Kidman hit her stride eventually. I personally don't get the negative reviews. Trepass walked so Uncut Gems can run. 5HM: Flashbacks, GD: The Party Bro's Rizz

This is a bad movie, despite a strong cast. Security systems conveniently fail and the police just don't seem to exist. Some interesting elements to the plot, but the film is ultimately unrealistic, contrived, and frustrating to watch.

Absolutely horrible - I got drawn in by Nicole Kidman and Nicolas Cage, thinking they usually make good movies. But this story was just awful, and all of them were so unlikeable. Terrible movie - possibly the worst I've seen in my life. And I'm not a spring chicken! Would give zero stars if that was an option.

If you want to watch Nicole Kidman and Nicholas Cage act from the 1990s, I would watch this movie. For even 2011 the acting is over the top unbelievable. Am I watching Nicole Kidman and Nicholas Cage or the young and the restless?

I thought this was a very good movie and I don't know why it has such low ratings.
