Critics Consensus

Stephen Lang is as magnetic as ever, but his finely layered performance isn't quite enough to distract from Old Man's predictable story.

2/5

An unexceptional psychological horror from director Lucky McKee that feels dated and clunky, with some fairly ropey acting – or maybe that is down to the shaky lines put into the actors’ mouths.

2.5/4

The movie builds up enough steam, and has a sufficient supply of jolts, to make Old Man stick to the ribs at least a little by the time it’s over.

A superior example of how flavorful dialogue, talented actors and excellent staging can make something familiar really pop.

Old Man is a unique thriller with what is arguably the best performance by Stephen Lang to date.

If you’re looking for a traditional horror movie with reliable frights doled out in a recognizable pattern, well, McKee’s name alone should have been warning enough that you’re in the wrong place.

4.5/5

McKee’s camera, which moves around like a living presence and always seems to be on the brink of discovering something terrible, makes it impossible to relax for long.

Stephen Lang stars in a film titled the same as his recent roles. Old Man is boring, wordy, and unenjoyable. The movie feels claustrophobic within the four walls of a cabin in the woods, and the editing is sloppy. The acting is mediocre at best, and the ending is unsatisfactory. Old Man isn't worth watching.

Um bom filme que certamente seria ótimo ver numa peça teatral. Temos aqui uma claustrofobia de uma cabana, e a energia de boas atuações. Aliás o filme se baseia exclusivamente nas atuações, pois não temos nada para nos distrairmos. Como filmes de suspense antigos de Alfred, que se desenrolam lentamente, e que no fim não sabemos ao certo se o que estamos vendo é a verdade nua, ou se tudo não é um simbolismo, como no filme Mãe.

It's a decent film Stephen Lang is excellent and for me the ending was not expected. I think the critical response is overly harsh and actually think it is quite a clever film in its simplicity especially in today's modern films of crash action. Well done Mr Lang very good portrayal of a haunted man.
