- fhe82před 4 dnyThe Housemaid is very predictable overall. Every “twist,” every plot move, and every beat from the crazy wife angle is easy to see coming. It is entertaining at times, yes, but there is really nothing new here. The movie acts like it is hiding something shocking, but most of the time you are already two steps ahead of it. I also did not expect this one to be two hours long. That said, I did like that it almost plays like a two-part movie: first the introduction, where everything looks like a familiar domestic thriller, and then the big reveal, where the story shows what game is really being played. The problem is that by the time it gets there, we already know these people are crazy, or at least twisted enough to be in cahoots. For a moment, I even thought the husband and wife were pretending to fight so she could get some time away from him while he got busy with the help, just to keep their relationship interesting. But hell no, the movie had another kind of madness in mind. The real reason to watch this is Amanda Seyfried. What a crazy dame. There is something in the way she plays the character that makes the whole thing more enjoyable than it probably should be. Her performance is sharp, strange, and committed. It almost feels like she enjoyed playing that role a little too much. The other two are there, and yes, they help sell tickets, but Seyfried carries the madness. Predictable movie, familiar plot, nothing groundbreaking, but her performance gives it enough life to make it entertaining.
- Eric Widder12. února 2026More 2020s propaganda about how women aren't crazy and men are evil. The campaign of the vilification of men has been in full swing for 20 years now, meanwhile men are being abused by their girlfriends/fiances/wives every day. Other than that it was an ok movie, but frustratingly and laughably predictable.
- jackmeat18. května 2026My quick rating - 6.4/10. Good to see The Housemaid wastes absolutely no time getting started. Millie Calloway, played by Sydney Sweeney, rolls up to this gigantic mansion looking to interview for a live-in maid position with wealthy couple Nina and Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar). Right away, things feel a little too polished, a little too perfect, and considering Millie is basically living out of her car with a résumé held together by pure confidence and crossed fingers, she assumes there is no chance she lands the job. Of course, if she did not get the phone call shortly after offering her the position, we would have ourselves a very short movie. Things go sideways impressively fast. It takes roughly one day before Millie realizes Nina Winchester, played so well by Amanda Seyfried, might be just a tiny bit unhinged. And by “tiny bit,” I mean completely off her rocker. The dream job suddenly becomes one of those situations where every room in the house feels like somebody is one bad day away from throwing a vase through a window. Now, here is where The Housemaid occasionally frustrated me, mostly because Millie might be one of the worst liars ever written. Early on, she gets caught in these painfully obvious fibs, like explaining why she wore glasses during the interview but suddenly not afterward with the incredibly suspicious excuse of, “I do not always wear them, contacts.” Millie… just say you wear them for driving! Problem solved! Crisis averted! Instead, she practically waves a giant “I AM LYING” flag over her head. And speaking of questionable judgment, Millie continues making decisions that had me shaking my head while also laughing at how obvious some of the setups felt. Already told to stay away from the husband? Sure, why not go see a show with him using tickets you were literally asked to buy for mysterious reasons. Oh, and why stop there? Might as well end the night at a hotel, too. You don't think that gifted phone is tracking you, do you? At several points, The Housemaid had me thinking, "okay, this setup feels way too convenient…somebody is absolutely playing chess here while Millie is stuck playing checkers". To the movie’s credit, while the first half does not bring many surprises, things improve once the twists start kicking in. I was actually pretty close to guessing where things were headed, but not close enough to nail it exactly, and I am glad. The reveals land effectively even when you kind of feel the movie nudging you in the right direction. Performance-wise, everyone does solid work, but Seyfried is operating several levels above everyone else. She absolutely owns every scene she is in and walks the line between unstable, manipulative, and oddly fascinating. Sklenar conveys a certain devious side quite well. Sydney Sweeney does fine as Millie, and yes, if you are wondering whether the marketing leaned into Sweeney’s sex appeal, the answer is definitely yes LOL. Directed by Paul Feig, The Housemaid looks good and moves along at a nice pace. The darkly funny little wrap-up scene at the end honestly ended up being one of my favorite moments in the whole movie. I had no idea The Housemaid was based on a book, so I went in with zero comparison baggage. Although, as always, I am sure somewhere out there the book fans are already sharpening their pitchforks and whispering, “the book was better” LOL.
