Sick Ratings & Reviews
- Mithun21 grudnia 2025It's okay-ish. One time watch.
- Scott Thomas24 kwietnia 2025Finally saw "Sick". Loved it. The third act completely brought back the dread from the pandemic. I’m looking forward to seeing more work from this director.
- jackmeat24 listopada 2025My quick rating - 6.2/10. "Someone's using the Wifi." Oh shut up, those lights are blinking ALL THE TIME if it is on and connected. Sorry, geek speak done. In a world still reeling from the clutches of COVID, this flick emerges as a timely and exhilarating exploration of quarantine-induced isolation, sprinkled with a wickedly dark sense of humor. Written by the mastermind behind the iconic "Scream" franchise, Kevin Williamson, this film takes us on an unexpected rollercoaster ride through the human psyche, set against the eerie backdrop of a secluded lake house. The story revolves around Parker (Gideon Adlon) and her best friend, who, like many others during these challenging times, opt for quarantine at a seemingly peaceful family lake house. However, tranquility quickly morphs into tension when the boundaries between reality and paranoia blur. The film adeptly delves into the psychological toll of isolation, showcasing how the human mind can play tricks, especially when faced with an unknown threat. Sick boasts a screenplay crafted with razor-sharp wit and a dark sense of humor that cuts through the tension, providing moments of unexpected laughter amidst the chaos. Williamson, known for his expertise in the horror genre, weaves a narrative that keeps you on the edge of your seat. The film cleverly employs its extended party scene as a setup, lulling you into a false sense of security before the action kicks in with relentless intensity. What sets it apart is its ability to maintain a gripping narrative from start to finish. Once the action begins, it doesn't let go, keeping you glued to the screen with heart-pounding sequences and unpredictable twists. The film's atmosphere is imbued with a sense of dread, expertly amplified by its claustrophobic setting and hauntingly atmospheric soundtrack. The acting is actually above average, making the obvious pandemic jokes work just a little bit better than you would expect. The cast delivers convincing portrayals of characters teetering on the edge of sanity. Parker, in particular, is brought to life with depth and vulnerability, making her journey all the more relatable and harrowing. That opening scene with Joel Courtney was also done commendably. For being a Peacock original, this one was a captivating ride with enough dark humor to move the flick along. I do wish there was a bit more of the killing to be had, but that is just me. Overall, I would give it a go if you are seeking a decent at-home cinematic experience.
- Kevin Ward4 lipca 2025Really taut and polished slasher that features some tense hand to hand scenes, immpressive handheld camera work and just an overall fun experience. Kevin Williamson, who’s writing credits include the original Scream, injects some of that Scream DNA into this, but also has some fun in this pandemic era setting. The Covid framework might not work for everyone, and I think it limits some of Sick’s longterm appeal (and franchis-ability), but it ties the story together quite nicely. Plus, it’s a brisk 83 minute watch and it’s 10:22 opening just makes the cut for my Long Cold Open list. Fun flick.
