Drop

Preposterous... I liked it for a while until I didn't.

Drop is certainly cheesy and outlandish at times, you’ll even roll your eyes once or twice. But like the most thrilling of those 90s thrillers, you’ll never be bored.

...the best compliment I can give is that I couldn’t wait for it to be over.

Landon shows a playfully nimble majesty where it comes to balancing suspense, horror, humor, and general human pathos.

As we watch Violet juggle her anxieties, “Drop” shrewdly reminds viewers of how women are expected to perform in public without being seen as “crazy.”

It’s enjoyable stuff: a taut and crisply edited balance between humour and horror.

It's a great thriller that puts a traumatized woman between a rock and a hard place, a sky-high trap that she can't hope to escape.

Drop isn’t at all a drop-everything-to-watch-it kind of movie, but when you get around to it, it’s not such a bad way to spend 95 minutes.

A potent combination of Red Eye, Fresh and It Ends With Us (thanks largely to the presence of Sklenar), Drop is a single-room chiller filled with twists and turns that will leave you exhilarated, but exhausted by its end.

No, the title doesn’t refer to eye drops, lemon drops or (thank the Lord) Drop Dead Fred -- instead, it refers to the type of messages sent anonymously to people’s cell phones. And it's a sturdy thriller that largely delivers.
