The Boy Next Door Ratings & Reviews
Us Weekly
Mara Reinstein
It's all hilariously ridiculous, but bless J.Lo for trying her mightiest to sell it. If someone's going to bring sultriness to suburbia, it might as well be Jenny from the Block.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
I haven't seen a bigger mess in wide release since Dana Carvey's career-terminating The Master of Disguise.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
There are many grades of terrible in Hollywood, and this is pretty nearly the worst.
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
The cheese is thick and it smothers everything in "The Boy Next Door," but it's never quite gooey or spicy enough.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
This isn't a very demanding role for Lopez, but she still fails to carry it off. In fact, nothing about this film is convincing. It all feels notably artificial.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Rather than being good-bad, "The Boy Next Door" is just plain bad.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
A dumb, thrill-less thriller.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Breathless, uninspired January junk that feels like the iffiest bits of a Lifetime movie and late-night cable schlock slapped together. (And not erotically.)
New York Times
Nicolas Rapold
Mr. Cohen, no stranger to delivering pulp product, employs visual clichs as if they were flash cards; no exposed thigh or made-you-jump reveal goes unexploited.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
"The Boy Next Door'' wants badly to be a cut-rate "Fatal Attraction,'' but ends up getting more laughs than many comedies.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
"The Boy Next Door" may end up as one of the worst movies of 2015, but it is also one of the most entertaining.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Kevin C. Johnson
It's unashamedly of the B-movie variety - a quick and easy time-killer.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
If it's trash, it at least has the sense to be gleeful about it.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Kristin Tillotson
"The Boy Next Door" is a string of situations in which the actors' Job One is keeping straight faces while uttering lines like, "A woman like you should be cherished."
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
What the film needs is a subversive touch, something that doesn't play it safe. Otherwise, The Boy Next Door is just another pretty face.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
I wish "The Boy Next Door" were a different, zingier sort of mediocrity, but whenever it threatens to go the full Zalman King "Two Moon Junction" route, it pulls back and behaves itself and settles for a grindingly predictable series of escalations.
Arizona Republic
Randy Cordova
It's no surprise "The Boy Next Door" is junk. What is disappointing is that it's not fun junk.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Even in this dreck ... it comes as a bit of a surprise how comfortable and appealing Lopez is on camera.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Predictable and foolishly unsuspecting characters react in ways that make you want to shake them. But there's an undeniable sense of silly fun in this erotic thriller.
TIME Magazine
Daniel D'Addario
The Boy Next Door wastes Lopez's talents, just as much of the schlock classic actresses like Joan Crawford or Bette Davis appeared in wasted theirs.
