Orphan Reviews
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
It would be harder to find a more dark and joyless thriller on the market than this one.
Los Angeles Times
Glenn Whipp
Clocking in at more than two hours, the movie teeters between psychological horror and violent blood-letting and, as such, probably won't completely satisfy fans in either camp.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
There's a surprise ending, followed by several bonus endings, and we're not giving anything away in noting that the film's titular adoptee has more lives than Chucky.
Village Voice
Chuck Wilson
Decidedly amoral.
Chicago Reader
Cliff Doerksen
Director Jaume Collet-Serra (House of Wax) endows this ugly mess with a slew of unintentional laughs, but not enough to repay the 123-minute time suck.
At the Movies
Ben Mankiewicz
It's bloody, you should be warned, but in the end it is worth it.
At the Movies
Ben Lyons
Painfully predictable.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
The scares are often the generic, push-off-the-slide variety and Orphan doesn't add much to the genre except, disturbingly, a fetishistic bent that's creepy in the wrong way.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
The film rests on Furhman's shoulders, and she's up to the task.
Movie Retriever
Brian Tallerico
Orphan is one of the weirdest major studio summer movies in a long time. It's the kid at the summer movie school that no one wants to play with because he's more than a little odd. I always liked kids like that.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
So sloppy, so lowdown, so shameless and so entertaining, Orphan provides everything you might expect in a psycho-child thriller, but with such excess and exuberance that it still has the power to surprise.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
This Orphan is an atmospheric and occasionally vicious little git and an above-average entry into the "cuddly hellspawn" genre, overlong at two-plus hours but nowhere near as excruciatingly overdone as others of its ilk.
I.E. Weekly
Amy Nicholson
I didn't mind wasting two hours watching the truly ferocious Furhman teach Max how to play Russian roulette and snickering when Kate thinks to Google "children who kill."
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Surely writers David Leslie Johnson and Alex Mace deserve their own circle of hell for thinking up the story, which moves with breathtaking cynicism from disturbing to grotesque to perverse to ludicrous.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
It's a cut above most spooky-kid movies, with a twist that sets it apart.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Actors have to eat like the rest of us, but you still have to wonder how Vera Farmiga and Peter Sarsgaard ended up wading through Orphan and not laughing.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Overlong and overwrought, Orphan stays faithful to every clich of the genre.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
To really get under your skin, a bad-seed horror movie needs a demon child whose dastardliness sneaks up on you. There's nothing too subtle, however, about Esther.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Although reasonably, cheesily suspenseful, the movie takes a long time to get going. Its tagline, 'There's something wrong with Esther,' turns out to be a masterpiece of understatement.
MSN Movies
Kathleen Murphy
While the third-act surprise twist of Orphan must have looked wicked-good on paper, on screen ... not so much.
