Quick Hit

Misery moves like a head-trip horror piece—tense, claustrophobic, and knows exactly when to twist the knife.

Full Take

Misery leans hard into psychological horror energy, and Rob Reiner keeps the tone tense without letting the movie drift. The best parts are the confidence and control: it takes its time, sets the trap, then slams the door. It absolutely earns the spot in a serious horror library.

There’s a lot to like here, but also a lot that holds it back from being great.

I see both sides. Some parts worked, some didn’t.
