Critics Consensus

Though restrained by most torture porn standards, Would You Rather's brilliant premise is ultimately harmed by its tendency towards blood and guts.

Hardly a most dangerous game night at the movies.

This restrained exercise in torture porn benefits from its clever concept and restrained execution.

A derivative horror movie with highfalutin pretensions.

3/5

There's an interesting premise at the heart of this fairly derivative horror that leans into the "torture porn" sub-genre with disturbing and gruesome effect.

3/5

Jeffrey Combs once again elevates a relatively mundane experience into something sort of enjoyable, yet it's only one of many films in this specific subgenre that fails to stand out in any major ways.

Would You Rather is a horror film in the truest sense, opening up frightening doors in our minds and making us look at parts of ourselves. It's not easy, but it is well-done and extremely compelling.

This garbage was simply an exercise in shock value and torture. Don't bother.

This was so painful to watch. Interesting concept and I like Brittany Snow but it’s depressing. This is coming from someone who typically likes depressing dramas. Just went no where.
