The Housekeeper

Tubi has some interesting titles. This one was interesting.

It kept me wanting to know what was going to happen.

The ending was ok and strange but I liked the film overall for it's atmosphere. It was like a throwback 90s thriller, so it was a sort of tongue and cheek wink and nod at that old genre.

The acting was pretty good. Ilean Almaguer was the best.

Of course Denise Richards was good as well. It's nice to see her in more movies. I hope we see more of her.

Overall, it was an interesting, weird, throwback film, that wasn't perfect but I enjoyed it for what it was. I liked how it was a sort of throwback vibe to the old thrillers. Thumbs up.

I can't believe I watched this whole movie. After I started it, I figured might as well. Keep going. Not much is explained the acting is terrible and so is the story . Denise Richards is not a good actress and with all the plastic surgery she even talks differently. I feel like I was watching a lifetime movie. The ending is rushed and still left me not sure of what actually happened. I would definitely skip this one. There are a lot of better movies on Tubi so don't waste time on this.

Don't know what else to say, but my review is too short to post. I think the woman who played the housekeeper was the best actor in this film. Really dumb and a disappointing ending.

Wow.. what a waste of time. There's not much in the way of character build up. The acting isn't believable and the storyline is very weak. I have watched many Tubi originals and this one was the worst. How anyone could have rated this a 10 makes me wonder.. did they watch a different movie or were they paid to post a positive review? Or maybe they were one of the cast members. If I was one of the cast members I would be embarrassed to say I was in this movie. I think that Tubi should scrap this movie and pretend it was never made.

I wasted my time, hopefully this review will keep you from wasting your time.

I love a good thriller, something that keeps you on edge and makes you feel something inside. I definitely felt that with this film especially when the gears get going and they get going at a good pace.

The deal with the housemaids and the Ash family and their secrets while they run for office and how it all ties together is an intriguing one, that once it all culminates to the surprise at the end it leaves you feeling sick (in a good way)

The ending left me wanting more and I mean that in a good way, it definitely has a satisfying enough conclusion but boy do you want more from these characters, it left me feeling gutted.

I loved seeing Denise Richards and Ilean Almaguer is a fantastic star I wasn't familiar with but would like to see more of her.

Overall go watch, perfect for thriller lovers and people wanting to get introduced to the genre.

Can't wait to see more from Stuart Altman who is director of this picture.

A young Latina maid discovers that her rich and well-connected employers are hiding a family secret. "The Housekeeper" is strong on atmosphere and effective at characterization thanks to some good acting by the principals and a gothic enough setting to inspire unease in the viewer. Unfortunately the film's ultimate, rather predictable revelation is too clichéd (and too dimly lit) to justify whatever buildup its creators invested in it. They seem to have striven for classic (if well worn) horror tropes, and succeeded after a limited, less than nightmarish fashion. But that's a little unfair - most of "The Housekeeper" is intriguing in its own right, and if audiences aren't amply rewarded for their time, neither should they feel cheated.
