What Comes Around Ratings & Reviews
FilmWeek (LAist)
Claudia Puig
It lacks focus and feels unconvincing and contrived.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Tim Cogshell
It thinks it's very complicated, but it's not.
The Playlist
Christian Gallichio
Feels a bit like its title - hinting at a complete narrative but only really giving us a half-formed idea.
In Review Online
Emily DuGranrut
What's most telling about Redford's film is that it both exploits and trivializes a series of very serious issues, and yet viewers will likely need to squint to find even that deeply troubling flaw amidst all of the bizarre and unbalanced choices evinced.
Next Best Picture
Alyssa Christian
Overall, Redford's sophomore feature-length directorial effort is a mess; despite a fairly engaging first half, it fails to stick the landing.
MovieWeb
Julian Roman
What Comes Around will send shivers down the spine of every parent. It's the worst case scenario for children's social media interactions. The plot thickens to mud with a bombshell reveal. The sensational twist is a bridge too far.
Reel Talk with Chuck and Pam
Pamela Powell
The cast of characters with a complexly intriguing story make "What Comes Around" one of the best smaller films of 2023. Redford's deft direction creates the unnerving atmosphere necessary for this story.
Common Sense Media
Jeffrey M. Anderson
This small-world drama centers on just a few characters and has a deep emotional pull for the first two thirds, but the rest feels somehow abrupt, serving the plot more than the characters.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
After unspooling its most significant twists halfway through, this unsettling thriller about obsession and hidden family secrets lacks the emotional depth to remain compelling throughout.
RogerEbert.com
Marya E. Gates
"What Comes Around" is what happens when filmmakers lack tact and land squarely in the realm of exploitation.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
By the end, it leaves one feeling ... thoroughly troubled by the movie's thoughtless handling of trauma-especially the new ones this cheap plot creates.
Denton Record-Chronicle
Preston Barta
'What Comes Around' so easily could have sunk into Lifetime Original Movie territory. But with its incredible details, authentic dialogue and wonderfully committed performances, Amy Redford positions the film on a thoughtful, human ground.
New York Times
Natalia Winkelman
The story, though neatly plotted, is engaging enough. The trouble lies in its staging.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
An unfocused, shallow and contrived psychological thriller that's saved by Grace Van Dien and Kyle Gallner's strong performances.

Jackie K. Cooper
Surprised by the turns this movie made, and the pacing of the film is near perfect.
Culturess
Lauren Coates
Wobbly filmmaking holds Roost back from the effective family drama/thriller it could've been, and the star-making turn for Van Dien it should've been.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
It all feels manipulative, turning its characters into pawns for a game of sexual chess.
Collider
Ross Bonaime
Roost wants to surprise the audience and get under their skin with these ideas, but instead, it just leaves a bad taste in the audience's mouth.
Orca Sound
Carey-Ann Pawsey
It begins as what you think is going to be a story of an inappropriate relationship between a 17-year-old girl and a 28-year-old man. Then it shifts into one about secrets thought long buried and how those chickens come home to roost for one parent.
Variety
Tomris Laffly
More awkward than anything is the yarn's miscalculated keenness to shock with only a handful of half-baked ideas of little substance.
