Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
"The Maid's Room" has much to recommend, including the versatile Mr. Camp in a Machiavellian role. But it doesn't marshal its twists toward a convincing or satisfying conclusion.

[A] sly, satisfying thriller about class, status and violence.

rotten:
"The Maid's Room" doesn't quite work, intriguing premise and all, and that the fault lies with Walker's labored script and wooden characterization.

rotten:
After a seductively moody intro, Michael Walker's domestic thriller devolves into a cartoonish attack on the filthy rich.

It's admirable that writer/director Michael Walker wanted to make a socially conscious thriller. But surely he didn't have to replace all the thrills with broadly moralizing messages.
