Clock Ratings & Reviews
jackmeat
October 19, 2024
My quick rating - 5.3/10. This movie sets itself up with an intriguing premise that promises psychological depth and a thoughtful exploration of societal pressures on women, particularly regarding motherhood. Dianna Agron delivers a solid performance, embodying the lead with conviction making her character's internal struggle believable and compelling. Agron truly carries the weight of the film on her shoulders, and in a better-structured narrative, her performance would have shined even more. However, the movie quickly falters as it loses focus. The plot feels disjointed, veering in multiple directions without fully committing to any of them. In the second half, the flick throws in new plot developments, but instead of adding depth, they feel scattered and ultimately lead nowhere. What could have been a sharp, focused psychological thriller instead feels like it's trying to do too much and succeeds at none of it. The dialogue at times is a bit too on-the-nose, lacking the subtlety that would have allowed the audience to engage more thoughtfully with the material. It has moments of tension—particularly one scene at a birthday party that stands out—but the film fails to deliver on the scares or suspense one might expect from its setup. Ultimately it is a missed opportunity. With its potential and great lead performance, it could have been a tightly crafted, engaging horror film. Unfortunately, its scattershot approach leaves it feeling more like a collection of ideas than a cohesive story. If the film had picked a lane and fleshed it out, it might have been something special. Instead, it leaves you wondering what it could have been.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
Despite its fascinating intersection of societal pressures and personal guilt, Clock struggles in its horror approach.
New York Times
Elisabeth Vincentelli
"Clock" is a psychological thriller, or perhaps even a satire, in horror clothing, tantalizing us with thought-provoking ideas, only to abandon them...
Variety
Courtney Howard
Writer-director Alexis Jacknow amps up the anxiety by blending science and religion into paranoia-soaked mayhem, conjuring resonant emotion and haunting menace in this psychological horror film.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
Ms. Agron gives a highly intelligent performance -- at no time do we doubt Ella's awareness of how badly things might go, and while we do have questions about her judgment, the pressures she's under are made palpable.
Jordy Reviews It
Jordy Sirkin
CLOCK aims to take viewers through the uncertainty of motherhood, but struggles to balance all its themes and deliver an impactful message.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
This is the story of a woman surrounded by fanatics attempting to indoctrinate her against her will. Because despite volunteering, the violence that ensues proves she does not consent.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
Clock only makes sense in the context of it forcing its main point, regardless of how nonsensical everything else becomes.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
Clock leans too heavily on too-obvious visual metaphors, but it's still a vivid and visceral explication of one woman's fears.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Alex Maidy
Overall, this is a well-made movie that should promote some difficult conversations, even if it doesn't necessarily succeed in the ways you would expect. Be prepared, as you cannot unsee a few things in this movie that you cannot unsee.
Reel Talk with Chuck and Pam
Charles Koplinski
Tapping into every expectant mother's deep well of fears, Alexis Jacknow's Clock is a genuinely disturbing, if flawed horror film that benefits greatly from brisk pacing and a dynamic lead performance from Dianna Agron.
AIPT
Nathaniel Muir
Writer-director Alex Jacknow is at his best when exploring the psychological terror of the whole situation. When Clock leans more into horror, it is the explorations of character that resonate more.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
Dianna Agron and Melora Hardin give fine performances amid the nonsense. They're just another reason to wish that Clock had more depth and coherence than it does.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Offers a unique view on pregnancy from the women's POV.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
Agron throws herself fully into the role and the first 45 minutes of Jacknow's disturbing commentary works wonders, but it strays and winds up losing its punch near its end.
The Playlist
Matthew Monagle
There is a void in the market for horror films that speak directly to nonparents. Jacknow also shows enough command of both the material and the production design to prove her horror bonafides.
Assignment X
Abbie Bernstein
Effectively disturbing thriller about a particular type of social pressure.
Common Sense Media
Jennifer Green
The central idea of the pressure on women to conceive is an interesting starting point. But the supposed clinical trial Ella participates in is so far-fetched, and her motivation too rushed, for much believability.
Cultured Vultures
Natasha Alvar
Unsettling and disturbing, this film will sit with you for days.
Decider
John Serba
Jacknow hammers away with the symbolism, pulls rugs from under our feet and swerves wildly through a messy third act punctuated with some gruesome imagery. But Agron hangs on, and ultimately, we're there with her.
