Critic Reviews

  • Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times

    Neither trashy nor self-consciously funny enough to make its genre-trapped ludicrousness sing.

  • Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News

    As ineffectual police work and broken feet stack up, the silliness gets out of hand.

  • Kyle Smith, New York Post

    Everything, including the ending, plays out exactly as you'd expect.

  • Michael Rechtshaffen, Hollywood Reporter

    An unmitigated B-movie that isn't thrilling enough or cheesy enough to make it worth the trip.

  • Stephen Holden, New York Times

    Homecoming is coldly efficient for what it is. But what it is is trash.

    Decent. Barton was better in this than she was in the O.C. Pretty predictable, and funny that the director is the same one that directs the TV show Teen Mom.

    After watching Homecoming, I found it a weak mix between Fatal Attraction and Misery.The plot was nothing new we had seen before, a scholarship was given to Mike, a role for Matt Long, so he came back for Christmas and brought his new girlfriend, Elizabeth. But Mike's ex… More
