This might not be what fans expect from an Exorcist movie, but they’ll be even more surprised that it’s actually watchable. Read full review

RogerEbert.com Matt Zoller Seitz

Oct 4, 2023

The Exorcist: Believer is a pretty good movie that's so stuffed with characters and not-quite-developed ideas that you may come away from it thinking about what it could have been instead. Read full review

The Film Verdict Alonso Duralde

Dowd and Burstyn’s performances will endure even as the rest of it fades into the memory hole of unnecessary sequels. Read full review

Collider Chase Hutchinson

Oct 4, 2023

For all the promising threads it pulls on surrounding a variety of faith traditions, The Exorcist: Believer doesn't earn your belief or your fear. Where Friedkin's classic will endure forever, this superficial sequel remains stuck in the past. It may try to speak all the same verses, but it doesn't add new life to any of them. Read full review

The Exorcist: Believer, in its superficially competent and poshly mounted way, feels about as dangerous as a crucifix dipped in a bottle of designer water. Read full review

The Independent Clarisse Loughrey

Oct 4, 2023

This is a toned-down, more limply palatable iteration of William Friedkin’s 1973 classic: the projectiled pea soup is gone, the verbal abuse has been whittled down to a single ‘c***ing’, and any and all acts committed with crucifixes barely register a shock. Read full review

The Telegraph Tim Robey

Oct 4, 2023

Director David Gordon Green fails to whip up even a fraction of the original 1973 chiller's menace in this sloppy, CGI-heavy farrago. Read full review
