Excellent performances from the cast elevate this otherwise slightly flawed a hokey interloper story.

Retreat inevitably (and lamentably) establishes itself as a generic and hopelessly uninvolving thriller that grows more and more tedious as it progresses.
October 16, 2011
Tibbetts's passable thriller deploys on terra firma a plot similar to Charles Williams's nautical noir novel Dead Calm: a grieving couple's supposedly healing holiday is disrupted by a malevolent nutter.

This is a neat, well-crafted three-hander, making good use of its location; it really is a meaty role for Bell, who lets rip in what might be his most eye-catching part since Billy Elliot.
October 15, 2011
Smartly directed, intriguingly twisty and frequently tense thriller that's given an extra edge thanks to an engagingly complex turn from Jamie Bell.

Retreat sports some high-caliber actors in a claustrophobic home-invasion thriller a la Straw Dog that offers up some truly thrilling moments.

A suspenseful and well-performed "home invasion" thriller with a nasty biological twist.
London Evening Standard

A well-shot and directed telling of a claustrophobic tale which turns from thriller to horror story by the end. Only if you can't suspend your disbelief will it fail to keep you watching.

Tense if rather monotonously bleak, it's a shame Jason Isaacs and David Tennant didn't co-star as originally planned.

Thandie Newton is the disappointed wife of Cillian Murphy in an end-of-marriage Straw Dogs-style horror flick.

Retreat's wheels are constantly spinning, but they're not always taking us anywhere.
