Quick Hit

Orphan hits like a head-trip horror piece—twisty, trashy, and leaves a bad taste on purpose.

Full Take

Orphan leans hard into psychological horror energy, and Jaume Collet-Serra keeps the tone twisty without letting the movie drift. This one understands that tension beats noise, so it keeps tightening the screws until you're stuck in it. Not flawless, but the swing is worth it.

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

This is one of those where the vibe is strong but parts of Orphan still feel uneven.
