Lights Out (2016) Movie Review By A.V. Club


The film is blatantly, unmistakably about mental illness, and that makes it hard to ignore or forgive what it ends up saying (hopefully by accident) on the subject. Full Review


Rating: 2.5/5


Lights Out (2016) Movie Review By The Guardian


The central conceit – a ghoul you can only see in the dark – is smart, but the only bumps in the night will be the sounds of viewers nodding off. Full Review


Rating: 2/5


Lights Out (2016) Movie Review By ign


With an unnerving monster at its core, great cast and relentless final sequence, Light’s Out is a debut director Sandberg should be proud of. A clunky script occasionally loosens its grip on the nerves, but chances are Diana will still have you sleeping with the lights on for a good while after leaving the theatre. Full Review


Rating: 7/10
