Review of The Rental (2020)

By David Ehrlich (1,229) for IndieWire (3,631) on 21 Jul 2020

Even in spite of its obvious nowness, this thing is such a lean, mean, and utterly merciless old school programmer that it might seem anachronistic…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Michael Roffman (138) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 20 Jul 2020

Franco exercises so much restraint, especially during the frenetic final act, that you’re always left on edge…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Jon Frosch (191) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 20 Jul 2020

It's a confident, enjoyably nasty piece of work, unnerving enough to cure your FOMO about that canceled summer vacation…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Richard Whittaker (567) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 20 Jul 2020

Take out the masked menace, this is still tense: Add them in, and it's stomach-churning…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Chris Evangelista (306) for Slashfilm (971) on 20 Jul 2020

As far as directorial debuts go, The Rental is a strong start for Franco, who proves here he can take not just one but two different tried-and-true…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Variety (12,700) on 20 Jul 2020

There’s some crafty artistry at work in The Rental, and also some fairly standard pandering, which feels like a violation of the movie’s…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Chuck Bowen (756) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 20 Jul 2020

Dave Franco has a mighty command of silence as a measurement of emotional aftershock…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 20 Jul 2020

Instead of slavishly appending cliched horror tropes onto his otherwise worthy script, Franco should have at least taken the horror genre seriously…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Christopher Schobert (126) for The Film Stage (3,162) on 20 Jul 2020

A sturdy, small-scale thriller that makes little lasting impact but certainly succeeds in providing some clever jolts…

Review of The Rental (2020)

By Roger Moore (6,008) for Movie Nation (3,875) on 20 Jul 2020

The younger Franco doesn’t reinvent the genre or advance it in any way…
