Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
We could not possibly care less.
– Jeannette Catsoulis,

rotten:
The Roommate - the umpteenth uncredited remake of 1992's Single White Female - sucks bad, real bad.
– Peter Travers,

rotten:
"The Roommate'' is dumb about psychology and suspense.
– Wesley Morris,
Boston Globe,

rotten:
The movie is exploitative schlock; both its
 stars -- particularly Meester, who has something, although she herself has 
perhaps not yet figured out what -- deserve better.

– Mary F. Pols,

rotten:
Kelly and Meester hit their marks and look pretty doing it, while supporting players Cam Gigandet, Billy Zane and Aly Michalka fade into the background so blandly that viewers will never remember they were there.
– Ann Hornaday,
