Haunted Mansion (2023)

"Diverting, if creaky..."

"Joyless Halloween merch."

"Family-friendly, spooky fun with surprising emotional heft..."

"While the visual effects are surprisingly weak for a film of this scale, the script proves far better than anyone might expect..."

"Beats waiting in line for the ride, but just barely."

"The plot is creakier than the floorboards, and why is it over two hours long?"

"A good first horror movie for youngsters..."

"A surprisingly creepy affair."

"The ride was a breezy trip that lasted maybe 10 minutes — the film stretches on far longer, offering frighteningly less."

"Just so-so..."

"Frightfully unfunny..."

"Haunted Mansion isn’t scary, funny or any good."

"A soulful New Orleans ghost story that expertly speaks to younger audiences about death..."

"Not just confused but inconsequential."

"Deathly dull..."

"You will... definitely feel like you’ve been taken for a ride in the worst possible way."

"Enjoyable, if somewhat sedate..."

"A nonstop tour of supernatural whimsy, macabre humour, and heart."

"Anyone expecting anything more than a few jump scares and bumps in the night is going to be disappointed..."

"Not that funny or spooky. Its saving grace is a cast you’re happy to spend time with."

"It’s not really fun, spooky or engaging enough to make much of an impression..."
