If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog :) Once again, I didn’t know anything going into the theater regarding this movie. In fact, Ready or Not wasn’t even on my watchlist until the beginning of this week. I thought it was just going to be a passable and cheap horror flick, but the tremendously positive feedback from everyone around the world convinced me to give it a go. Fortunately, I wasn’t disappointed! Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett deliver a dumb yet entertaining film with a childish yet fun concept never really explored in the gruesome and...

‘Ready or Not’ doesn’t sport as many laughs as you'd want for this ridiculous story, nor is it dark enough to be a true horror; it's just gory and violent with the occasional jump scare and anxiety-ridden scene. So while it doesn’t meet expectations or desires, it’s still a fun, thrilling, wicked romp through the blood-soaked mansion and goat barn. So prepare yourself for squeals of fear, squeals of delight, squeals of patriotism and the occasional giggled “WTF!?”... because here it comes! - Jess Fenton Read Jess' full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-ready-or-not-not-quite-horror-not-quite-comedy-but-a-wickedly-good-time

Fun little horror-thriller-(dark)comedy that was entertaining enough and features a great performance from Samara Weaving, who has similar command of the scene like her uncle. Story-wise, not groundbreaking but as someone who generally doesn't enjoy dark comedies, this one worked for me. **3.5/5**

I've never kept it secret that I have a personal issue with Samara Weaving, but I try to keep things like that out of my mind, and, even though I know it's impossible to be truly objective about something as subjective as art, at least attempt to be **impartial**. And bearing that in mind, _Ready or Not_ is... Okay. Pretty good even. Disappointing, if I'm honest, given the hype and the trailer, but still. Pretty good. _Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go._

Fantastic watch, will watch again, and do recommend. This is such a great crazy, survivalist premise: an average lady that just wants to marry her man gets served up into a human hunting game, and she's a bad ass. Samara Weaving nails every aspect of this role. I did recognize a couple other actors: Melanie Scrofano (Wyanna Earp), Adam Brody, and Andie MacDowell, but none of the family really stands out other than Melanie, and that is more of circumstance, but they put the right person in that role at least. The setting is limited to the estate grounds, but...

The excellent Samara Weaving is the antithesis of a scream queen. With kick-ass roles in "The Babysitter," "Mayhem," and "Guns Akimbo," she is vying with Harley Quinn as the "vixen" of modern cinema. An outrageous story with just the right balance of camp and horror, "Ready or Not" is a fun romp through the worst-ever wedding night.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good solid entertainment. Nothing really special, or twisty, but a great execution (unfortunately rare these days). This is how movies like Boss Level or Wrath of Man should've been made. * Short runtime ✅ * Never slows down ✅

When "Grace" (Samara Weaving) marries "Alex" (Mark O'Brien) she thinks it will be the happiest day of her life. Gathered at his family's sprawling mansion, the ceremony is followed by a small dinner at which "Tony" (Henry Czerny) announces that it is traditional on such occasions to play a game. A game of hide and seek. A lethal, deadly and downright dangerous game of hide and seek with poor, unsuspecting, "Grace" the target. The family count to two hundred then set off with all sorts of weapons (they cannot use guns nor the house's security cameras) to eliminate her. With...

Drawn out to absurdity... Predictable and long winded.

**In a world of remakes, Ready or Not brings a bold new take on fun old horror.** It’s no wonder Ready Or Not’s directing duo was asked to take over the Scream franchise. This film has Scream’s dark humor dripping from every kill, every snarky one-liner, and every fully embraced horror trope. Ready or Not is a beautiful mixture of Scream, Clue, and The Most Dangerous Game, all held together by Samara Weaving’s fantastic performance. Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett are the masters of taking over used horror tropes and using them to tease and subvert expectations creating dark, fun, and tense...

**The evil of money, a brutal carnage and a marriage for love in a movie of ups and downs.** How many times we, common contributors, do not think of the hypothetical dark side that would like to exist in those rich families of business, politics and the arts? For many people, envy is very natural. Others, like me, are more concerned with the lawful origin of fortunes (what matters to me is that the rich honestly earn their money, the rest I feel it does not concern me) and others think that, since money is so earthly and perhaps evil,...

What to think about this one... I'm not totally sure how I view 'Ready or Not'. There are elements to it that I love, things I would've liked to have played differently and one bit that I kinda hated. I'll start with the big positives: Samara Weaving and the visual of Samara Weaving. How epic does Grace look by the end of the movie? So good! Weaving herself gives a brilliant performance, easily the star of the show. Now for the parts I'd change, admittedly I haven't thought it through properly so probably wouldn't have made sense, but I digress....

Ready or Not (2019) is a brilliant, high-energy fusion of dark comedy and survival horror that breathes fresh life into the "most dangerous game" trope. The film excels by taking the universal anxiety of meeting the in-laws and escalating it into a literal, blood-soaked fight for survival within a sprawling, gothic mansion. Samara Weaving delivers a powerhouse performance as Grace, evolving from a confused bride into a gritty, resilient survivor. Her descent through the literal and metaphorical filth of the Le Domas family estate is both harrowing and darkly hilarious. The film’s greatest strength lies in its tone—it manages to...

This is a deeply silly premise, but they play it more or less completely straight, and with the casting and directing being this good, it comes off as a completely sincere take on something outrageous. The ending is one of the best in recent movie-goes history. I can whole-heartedly recommend this, if nothing else then for the casting.
