Hush Ratings & Reviews
- rg9400November 1, 2024In a home invasion streak, I stumbled upon Hush and was very excited because it was early Mike Flanagan, a director I think is the best in the horror genre right now. I had high hopes for it, but I left kind of disappointed. The movie revolves around the gimmick that the main character is deaf and mute, so obviously an invader has a massive upper hand. I thought the beginning of the movie was strong, where the antagonist feels truly threatening and creepy. However, early on, it becomes clear the antagonist of this movie is interested in playing with her, and so what follows is a series of confusing decisions that really neuter the threat of the antagonist. I think the movie would have been much stronger had it showcased him actually trying to attack her from the beginning and how she finds unique ways to fight back. The antagonist also speaks, which I think severely downgrades his presence. I did appreciate that the movie showcases Kate Siegel's decent acting chops, and the protagonist is much more compelling than most in these types of movies. I felt much more could have been done from an audiovisual perspective, especially in terms of putting the viewers in the shoes of a deaf character. Flangan is extremely good with the technical aspects of filmmaking, but unfortunately, I did not find much to appreciate in this earlier work of his. I think there are a handful of decent scenes and an interesting premise, but mostly I would suggest to skip this movie.
- JhonJharell BalansagMarch 31, 2025The movie was suspenseful and had some scary moments. But when the antagonist showed his face, it felt less frightening. Still, the use of sound and silence made it exciting to watch.

- 94kyleAugust 3, 2025This was a pretty good movie, very entertaining and an easy watch. Not very scary though!
- vinodkumarmohanaranganJanuary 10, 2026A Great horror thriller
- Nicholas FlorioDecember 6, 2025Really good movie. It's a super scary scenario. The whole movie was pretty intense from beginning to end. The only think it was missing was a any semblance of a motive. I wish some back story on our bad guy. Other than that 8.5 out of 10
- ርልዪረAugust 28, 2025This horror movie is one of the best I have seen by far. The story is so interesting, and everything makes sense. It has lots of plot twists/turns and it has an extreme satisfying ending. Most horror movies leave you wanting more. Like when the masked Killer finds out Sarah is actually deaf/mute and lives alone he makes up his mind to kill her. It is also very realistic and amazing job done by the actors! For only 5 characters this is a very amazing movie and I would definitely recommend this movie.
- asiaaikenMay 24, 2025Turned off in the middle of the movie and wouldn't restart , other than that the live movies work just fine.
- naciriimaneDecember 6, 2025I really liked the movie but i think it would be much better if the ending was "Maddie" writing the situation at the end (with details) on her book after she revovers
- bho748November 16, 2025Good movie ; suspense .
- aaune04June 21, 2025A masterpiece
- Hipster ZOMBIEJanuary 25, 2025Director Mike Flanagan delivers an intense nail biting home invasion film. For fans of the Flana-verse you might see Easter eggs from his other projects hidden in this film. Highly recommended!
