4/5
In cinemas, it might have been overshadowed by flashier rivals, but perhaps, on demand, this slow, but winningly bleak little tale will find the audience it deserves. Go to Full Review
Brian Lowry CNN.com Oct 20, 2017
[1922] is a credible addition to a filmography where practically every thought the writer commits to paper is, seemingly, deemed fit for the screen. Go to Full Review

The performances are great from top-to-bottom...this was a movie that probably should have been on the big screen. Go to Full Review
Zach Dionne Decider Mar 10, 2023
1922 is a new type of Stephen King movie, executed with as much artistic inventiveness as passionate faithfulness. Go to Full Review
Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut Mar 10, 2023
1922 is an effective, chilling bit of work that boasts a revelatory lead performance and a compelling, gradual erosion of a man's psyche. Go to Full Review

James M @Jimmy99 5 hrs ago I had good expectations for this movie based on the critics scores. However, I found this slow in an uninteresting way. There were no redeeming characters. It was gross in an unnecessary fashion. It makes you feel sad for everyone and each animal. I am guessing that the critics must have been trying to kiss up to Steven King and this director with their reviews. I can find no other explanation for the high ratings.
