Watcher Ratings & Reviews
FilmWeek (LAist)
Tim Cogshell
Good movie -- solid as a rock!
FilmWeek (LAist)
Peter Rainer
This is all potentially fodder for a pulp movie, but instead it was extremely well-directed, very evocative, and more like a psychological thriller.
Digital Trends
A.A. Dowd
Theme never hijacks tension in Watcher, which is content to let meaning emerge organically from the familiar cat-and-mouse games of its slender genre plot.
Associated Press
Jake Coyle
Okuno's taut feature artfully reconstructs a Hitchcockian thriller around, yes, a blonde heroine in Monroe, but one with her own gaze and distinct anxieties.
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
A chilly and elegant thriller.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
A gorgeously shot, often glacial thriller steeped in heavy-lidded style and atmosphere.
Los Angeles Times
Katie Walsh
This beautifully crafted jewel of a throwback thriller signifies Okuno as a talent to watch, but furthermore, it pushes the viewer to question what, and who, we choose to believe and why.
TheWrap
William Bibbiani
But while a few more corpses and a bit more on-screen danger might have made "Watcher" more intense, it would be counterproductive to luxuriate in cinematic violence in a film that's all about why it's wrong not to take stalking and violence seriously.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
Okuno crafts a superior, stylish thriller, rich with nods to the 1960s and the golden era of paranoia dramas.
New York Times
Lena Wilson
Okuno deftly elevates "Watcher" from a Hitchcockian homage to one of this century's most arresting tales of female anxiety.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
A cut above any number of this type of film.
AV Club
Luke Y. Thompson
The differences between how men and women perceive threats are always forefront in Okuno's narrative, a (mis-)understanding gap she literalizes by relocating the American Julia to Bucharest.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
With minimal violence, Okuno upends creepy conventions with an engrossing, meaningful take on the woman-in-jeopardy story.
AWFJ.org
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
Watcher is a dark, smart treasure of a film, with the collaborative energy of Okuno and Monroe very much at the heart of what makes it such a compelling viewing experience.
Harper's Bazaar
Tomris Laffly
A stunning gaslighting whodunit, [with] a blood-curdling villain for the ages.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
An old-fashioned thriller with a modern heartbeat, an announcement of Okuno as a major talent to watch.
Slant Magazine
Derek Smith
Watcher gives a feminist twist to a throwback genre, but never does its topicality dilute its gripping suspense.
The Hollywood Reporter
Jordan Mintzer
A film that sustains a viable ambiance of dread simply via someone looking out the window and shopping for groceries.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
Okuno's ability to create eerie unease from an uncomplicated premise impresses. It's a measured, moody psychodrama that allows Okuno to wear her influences on her sleeves, making them her own, until one satisfying finale.
IndieWire
Susannah Gruder
"Watcher" fails to live up to its inspirations, ending up a heavy-handed, predictable trip through genre tropes with a rather lifeless cast at its core.
