Leslie Felperin

Guardian

It's a chance to watch Pearce and his remarkable cheekbones and gleeful weirdness at work with a scripture-chewing performance that puts a lot of meat on what could have been an off-the-peg turn from a lesser actor.

Rated: 3/5

Variety

Pearce gets the good lines, which he delivers with a sinister nonchalance that says, "The devil made me do it. Or maybe it was my accountant."

Los Angeles Times

A movie like this needs to be more in-your-face. Instead, its intensity level rarely rises above a mutter.

Paul Klein

FILMHOUNDS Magazine

Sadly, The Seventh Day can't muster much in the way of anything near that and instead opts to be a dull meditation on what goes into having faith. Considering the power of Christ compels us – it's not that compelling.

Rated: 1/5

Mitchell Beaupre

Awards Radar

Mixing the subject matter of The Exorcist with the structure of Training Day is a pretty intriguing starting place for a movie, but Lange unfortunately struggles at times to make the most out of these unconventional ingredients.

Rated: 1/4

Keith & the Movies

Material like this should be unsettling and make us squirm. But it all comes across as pretty generic despite having an enticing general premise and at least one capable lead.

Rated: 2/5

Jeanette We were unable to watch this movie because they sent us to the wrong theater, as we were walking in on the door it said that was the movie to be showing in theater 10 but that was theater 01 they marked it wrong Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/13/21 Full Review Dennis B Good movie. The progression of a priest. The end hints to a sequel. Would have been great during Halloween. Recommended. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/27/21 Full Review Michael A What on earth is Guy Pearce doing in this mostly awful movie. While some thought provoking theological questions are brought up, most of should be very interesting does not go much of anywhere due to faulty screenwriting and directing. The voices placed on the possessed child are a laugh. I hope Pearce once again chooses his work wisely. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review babarizam D Terrible use of actor like Guy Pearce Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/21/24 Full Review David F It's really dull, predictable, clichéd and a bit of a slog ! Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/13/24 Full Review Ryan S It starts off ok, but gets super boring after that. I got distracted for half an hour and don't feel like I missed anything important, not even going to bother rewatching. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
