Frailty Ratings & Reviews
- GeNoScyllaNovember 8, 2025Very well made even though I am not sure if I like how it ended. Worth the watch regardless
- Sarah JJune 17, 2025Can’t believe I made it 24 years without ever seeing or hearing about this movie. Where has this been hiding?! Also no kid likes peas THAT much.
- Kevin WardJuly 1, 2025Love this movie. If you haven’t seen it, definitely seek it out. Paxton’s direction is really finely tuned. Wish he had been around to direct more features. Even better is his performance. On rewatch when you have the full context of his character’s motivations and actions you really see what an impressively nuanced performance it is.
- Amberjean BohannonOctober 30, 2025Amazing
- RobcradicAugust 31, 2025A must watch with an unexpected ending! Great performance from Bill Paxton, Matthew McConaughey and Powers Booth.
- NiztradamusAugust 25, 2025A really good thriller with superb acting. It really keeps you guessing throughout and every little detail matters. This one you will not want to miss. I would give it five stars if there weren't some small details, like some nonsensical reactions of adults in the movie.
- Duncanmac76July 20, 2025Slow build up story but with a great twist at the end.
