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.
- RyezooFebruary 20, 2025Impressive film. Terrible poster. Interesting take on a home invasion thriller. The protagonist being death and mute allows for unique/creepy situations to unfold. The actress is good and John Gallagher Jr. is even better. The cinematography and sound mixing is top notch.

- 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.

- asiaaikenMay 24, 2025Turned off in the middle of the movie and wouldn't restart , other than that the live movies work just fine.
- 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!
