	Author	Review
United States	Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter	"A stylish and very gory home-invasion thriller (...) a rather crass display of girl power and extreme vengeance."	POS
United States	Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle	"It's mostly just a nasty genre movie with some gruesome scenes of violence. But it's served well by a script that doesn't merely embrace the gimmick of a pubescent girl fighting bad guys"	NEU
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Though their movie is all bluster, it fails to blow down the cliches on which it’s built (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
Denmark	Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror	"This action-thriller is definitely worth your time and has many surprising scenes (...) It’s like an R-rated version of Home Alone (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"It’s a straightforward, paper-thin story that doesn’t bother to flesh out any enriching details (...) Where the film shines most, of course, is the fantastic action sequences and gore (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Kate Erbland IndieWire	"[An] empty shockfest (...) It becomes an endurance test"	NEG
United States	Dennis Harvey Variety	"[It] is lean, mean, nasty fun that will appeal to genre fans with hard-edged tastes"	POS
United States	A.A. Dowd AV Club	"Nothing in the movie makes a damn lick of sense (...) Hell, the film can’t even be bothered to explain its MacGuffin"	NEG
United Kingdom	Cath Clarke The Guardian	"If Wes Anderson ever decided to make a violent home-invasion thriller, you could imagine him writing a character like the teenage hero of this nasty, occasionally effective, movie (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"The biggest problem is that 'Becky' is a paper-thin vision of an angry teenager with a dead mom. She’s barely even an archetype (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Alix Turner Ready Steady Cut	"Exciting, fun, tense, and full of surprises. Jonathan Milott and Cary Murnion have clearly formed a strong partnership and can deliver action as well as the comedy we saw a couple of years ago in 'Cooties' (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times	"The problem with 'Becky' is there’s both too much information to sustain any tension and not enough to sustain interest"	NEG
