Critics Consensus

Anton Yelchin is the right man for the title role, but Odd Thomas suffers from a jumbled tone.

Yep, he's an odd one all right. You're likely to get tired of hearing about it pretty quick, though. Go to Full Review Cary Darling Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com Feb 28, 2014
3/5
Odd Thomas is an engagingly lightweight and occasionally visually inventive film that should appeal to Koontz fans and anyone else open to his whimsical approach to horror. Go to Full Review Tirdad Derakhshani Philadelphia Inquirer Feb 28, 2014
2.5/4
An endearing, witty romantic dramedy-slash-supernatural-thriller about a small desert town in California beset by demonic apparitions and a satanic cabal of deranged would-be mass murderers. Go to Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Aug 18, 2022
2/4
Subscribes to the notion that Hollywood entertainment consists of hammering the senses until the viewer has lost any semblance of intelligent thought. Go to Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Aug 29, 2019
1/5
A film that bungles the essence of romantic relationships, comedic timing, and preternatural thrills. Go to Full Review Karl Delossantos Smash Cut Reviews Aug 8, 2019

Odd Thomas has one really good thing going for it, and that's Anton Yelchin. After that, there's not much there. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Paddy G @RT70438453 Oct 20, 2026 Loved the books, and think the movie is a decent adaptation. It is fun, light hearted, a bit sweet. What's not to like? See more Laurance M @RT95298844 Sep 29, 2026 How could you not like this movie? Quirky I think is the word someone else. used to describe it. I thought it would be a comedy all the way through. But the ending really caught me off guard. My wife died a few years ago. This was one serious sci fi love story with a tragic surprise ending that left me stunned and tearful. See more B P @Bradster69 Sep 17, 2026 Not Bad, but Not My Favorite See more Sean E @RT11783402 Aug 8, 2026 A thoroughly enjoyable, excellent adaptation of a Dean Koontz story. Those that like Koontz's style of fiction will love this story. (The critic ratings being so low only reminds me of how political critics are, don't follow the critics...) See more Chiara T @kia120196 Dec 7, 2025 One of the best movie I ever watched. The ending was so sad for me cause i didn't expected her to die, maybe cause I'm in a relationship since almost 5 years and could never imagine my life without him, it made me cry cause I knew he had to live without the love of his life. Not always I can watch a movie without getting annoyed or bored, this one captured my attention from the beginning until the end <3 See more Craig W. @CJWolfe27 Nov 20, 2025 Good entertaining movie, worth a watch See more Read all reviews
