Berry's acting talents can't save Gothika from its preposterous plot and bad dialogue.

Antonia Quirke London Evening Standard The most interesting thing about this clunky, foolish horror flick -- in which everybody but the audience is constantly caught off-guard -- is Berry's scrappy wig. Dec 18, 2017 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Grisly, disturbing, extremely violent horror film. Rated: 2/5 Dec 24, 2010 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 2/5 Apr 1, 2006 Full Review Stephanie Archer Film Inquiry While Gothika may not have stood the test of time, or even present the most plausible horror narrative, it delivers an eerie watch that fans of the genre can enjoy. Feb 4, 2024 Full Review Mark H. Harris Black Horror Movies There's nothing particularly original, gory or scary about Gothika - a really weak "R" rating - but it's more or less competent. Rated: 2.7/5 Jan 3, 2020 Full Review Joe Leydon The Moving Picture Show Berry struggles to retain some shards of dignity as she dutifully plods through the contrivances of Gothika.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/18/24 Full Review Victor P A preposterous supernatural horror thriller. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/20/24 Full Review Satin B I fell asleep watching it 😴 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/21/23 Full Review Holly Really enjoyed this movie! X Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/28/23 Full Review edward h After all the negativity, I was very reluctant to watch Gothika. Was I glad I watched it, finally? 'Glad' is an understatement!! This thriller was like WOW!!! Engrossing, intriguing and suspenseful all the way. Scary too. Great, great ending...what a plot!!! Preposterous? Not at all. Hats off to those who penned the script. Gothika had all the ingredients of a top thriller. Highly recommended. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/17/23 Full Review stev c Awesome plot full of fun twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat the whole way through!
