Opiniones de Metacritic

It’s low-key in tone and not a splatter fest, even remotely. You Should Have Left is horror for a thinking audience.

The movie won’t disturb your dreams, but it grabs hold of you and keeps tugging.

Bacon holds it steady, setting up residence in an uneasy, unwell character, unconcerned with making him likable or worth rooting for — the kind of person who gets left behind, and with good reason.

Koepp and his cast successfully convey how afraid the family becomes once it's clear they're being supernaturally prevented from leaving the house. But that's not the most original idea upon which to build a franchise, and it's clear from both third-act exposition and the pic's final scene that the filmmakers want just that.

There's an unintended kick, in the current moment, watching a movie designed to make you want to flee the confines of a house.

Sure, it’s creepy as hell and very stylish to boot, but You Should Have Left essentially plays like a scaled-down Blumhouse riff on “The Shining,” only with slightly shorter hallways and considerably less ambition.

Even at 93 minutes, the material feels thin, and so does its moral message. But the movie's goofy, blunt-edged claustrophobia may also be its greatest gift to viewers: the chance to be grateful that the only ones haunting our own homes right now are us.

Unfortunately, the movie’s thriller elements amount to pale reflections of many other works.

You Should Have Left will, however, make you seriously rethink your next Airbnb rental. And maybe even push you to watch "Mortdecai," just to see what a real horror looks like.

Everything here feels timid and toothless, lacking in true atmosphere or genuine scares.
