Opiniones de Metacritic

Countdown can never be taken seriously enough to work as a conventional horror thriller, and it’s never quite funny enough to be a great horror comedy. But it’s got just enough eccentricity and self-awareness to entertain despite those obvious deficiencies.

This isn’t a subtle, moody film filled with a sense of unease; instead, jump scares are around every corner. If that’s all you want from a horror movie, you’ll have a very good time — and an elevated heart rate for its speedy 90 minutes.

The movie arrives at an eye-roll inducing final twist, and hints at an inevitable sequel. But this app isn't exactly begging for an upgrade.

It’s not highbrow entertainment. Movies like this always feel “designed,” like a theme park ride — story beat, JOLT, exposition exposition JOLT, etc. But Countdown manages the bare minimum — the occasional shock, characters we root for, thanks to the actors playing them, and situations fraught enough that the audience is talking back to the screen.

A pedestrian thriller whose personal-tech gimmick is even more thinly imagined than one might guess, it's a jumble of cheap jump scares made watchable by likable leads Elizabeth Lail and Jordan Calloway.

In Countdown, it’s the audience that really gets cheated.

Between “Jexi” a few weeks ago and now this, October has ended up becoming quite a great month for bad movies about scary software.

If there’s an ethos that Justin Dec’s film believes in, it’s only that “death sucks.”

Rather than screaming for them to go the other way, you'll be urging them to accept fate and die instead.

Bombastically dumb new chiller that probably would have been called "Killer App" if that title hadn't already been used several times.
