Truth or Dare is likely to invite comparisons to a lot of other films. It takes a few cues here and there from Saw, It Follows, and Final Destination, but mostly manages to coast on an engaging cast and a story whose built-in anticipation keeps you in your seat (when you’re not jumping out of it).

The director, Jeff Wadlow, has a puppyish eagerness to impress, shock and entertain and as silly as the film might get, it’s never dull. Read full review

Blumhouse’s Truth or Dare is what happens when high concepts crash. The audience is here to watch people play a deadly game of Truth or Dare, and yet the film’s truths and dares are unremarkable, and the players are mostly boring. Read full review

The internal logic of the movie is complex, confusing, and as a result the movie is not very much fun. Read full review

The privileged protagonists of Truth or Dare are neither interesting nor likable. They don’t even seem worthy of the academic degrees they’re getting. Read full review

Apr 11, 2018

Well-paced and featuring a game cast, this is still a yawny yarn that steals outright from Hideo Nakata’s seminal "Ringu" and the more recent "It Follows," as well as several of Blum’s own prior productions. Read full review

Truth or Dare commits the cardinal sin of a film with such a stupid premise; it tries to explain the spiritual source of the game. Read full review

I don't understand why ppl hate this movie so much. I am not exaggerating when I say it has everything what a good horror/thriller movie needs. And the best par is the ending..

I am not exaggerating when I say it has everything what a good horror/thriller movie needs. And the best par is the ending.. When you're sitting in your chair watching the movie, thinking you know how it will end, you are mistaken. It has great (and some predictable) twists and turns, but hey, which movie doesn't. I can honestly say it's underrated. Although we have already seen some horror films with the same title, this one takes a step higher and is definitely a need-to-see movie.… Expand

The critics and some fans are being way too harsh with this one. I went in with sub-zero expectations and can honestly say it was a decent typical teen horror flick. I've seen a lot worse!! It's definitely a solid 6. I gave it a 7 because some people were being way too critcal.

Una peli para ver una vez sola, muchos conceptos repetitivos pero tiene un gran final inesperado. Es como la combinación mala entre Destino Final y Nerve.

"Truth or Dare" was a very bad movie, with a poor development of plot, premise very predictable and repetitive, and the performances were bad, although the idea made by Blumhouse was rescueable at times.

Oh great, another horror movie starring bunch of young people in their 20's. It's not like that's been done before....

In all seriousness, the characters feel bland and the whole premise feels not as threating as something like Saw movies. If you have time go see this, just go see A QuietOh great, another horror movie starring bunch of young people in their 20's. It's not like that's been done before....

If you have time go see this, just go see A Quiet Place instead. It has far better characters, build-ups, and tension.… Expand

Is it me or is Hollywood purposely making stupid horror movies these days? Truth or Dare lacks a lot of development and is very lazy.

Un mélange de SAW et de Destination Finale pour notre bande de jeunes cons qui se retrouvent à l'insu de leur plein gré victimes d'un jeu mortel... C'est laborieux et ça ne tient pas la route malgré les efforts conjugués des 4 scénaristes !

Mais ça manque de morts violentes, ça manque de sadisme (cf SAW), ça manque de gore et ça manque de morts bien ridicules, celles qui faisaient le sel et l'amusement des Destinations Finales... Je serai tenté de dire qu'on ne s'ennuie pas trop mais ce ne serait pas la vérité... alors action ou vérité ? Vérité : on décroche rapidement malgré toute la bonne volonté du monde. Action : arrête le visionnage sous peine d'abrutissement total !

Film pour ados et adulescents complètement raté donc, inspiré d'un "jeu" (?) à l'origine complètement idiot pour jeunes amerloques très imbibés.… Expand
