3/4

Working from a 1982 novel set in Quebec City, director-writer Jacob Tierney provides enough thrills and surprises, even a little satire, to keep viewers' attention.

3.5/5

Swerving from bland to brutal, endearingly coy to shockingly explicit, the Canadian import "Good Neighbors" finds pitch-black comedy among white-bread lives.

There's enough creepy tension and nefarious deeds afoot to make for a really suspenseful short film, but even at just 96 minutes, Good Neighbors outstays its welcome.

This film has one of the best murder scenes in recent film memory. It's brutal and hilarious at the same time - and a must-see for cat lovers.

The film is superbly crafted, with veteran cinematographer Guy Dufaux composing a coherent palette of dark, rich interiors.

B-

Not a crackerjack thriller by any means, and I'm not sure it means to be: It's a dark comedy about people who do horrible things.

God awful despite having a great cast of well-known Canadian actors. The story twist is predictable albeit nonsensical, as well as many other parts that were just utterly confusing.

Sweet little serial killer movie. Well acted and we'll plotted. I also appreciated the comedic undertone.

This movie is excellent. Lots of twists and turns. I'm not sure why others don't like it. Its definitely worth the watch.
