Not sure why there are some terrible reviews about this movie. It was definitely dark and twisty and entertaining. Maybe not a top award winner, but definitely a solid film for entertainment if you like psychological thrillers. I enjoyed it.
Normally I do not like horror movies built on the idea that the protagonist is mentally ill, and that one does not know if what he sees is real or only hallucinations as an effect of his illness (or alternatively a side effect of his medication). That concept has been overused in horror movies from this century.
But apart from that, I think this movie was really good. There were many good scares, many creepy discoveries, good acting and generally high production values.

That was a nice treat. Kind of predictable in parts but enjoyable none the less. Should you watch it? well that's up to you but If you want my opinion on whether you should watch it I would say yes you should. It kept me interested throughout the whole movie so why wouldn't you be the same. Check it out and enjoy

Thought the core story for "Delirium" has a number of elements that should be familiar to those who have been around the horror and thriller block a fair amount of times, I think that the end results could still have worked under more capable hands. If you guessed from that last statement that I didn't think too much of it, you would be correct. This isn't the worst horror thriller I have seen, I admit. Typical for Blumhouse productions, it looks fine for what was a limited budget. And I admit that I was never bored at any moment, even when it rehashed elements I had seen before. However, it saddled with some severe problems. It's quite slow-moving at times, enough that you'll start to think that the screenwriter and the director were simply padding things out. There are also some missing details that suggest that some explanation for them either wasn't filmed or was left on the cutting room floor. A bigger problem is that the movie isn't particularly scary or suspenseful, possibly because of all those familiar elements in it. The director doesn't seem to have worked very hard to try to present these familiar elements in a fresh light. The movie does manage to pass the time in a relatively painless fashion, but that's all it really does - there is nothing that will make you remember it for a long time afterwards, or give you the desire to sit through it again.

I thought this movie was pretty good and better than I expected. Nothing scary to see in this movie, but the mansion layout and the sense of paranoia help build the tension / creepiness. Compared to A Quiet Place, this movie is way better. Still having a hard time wrapping my head around why many people praised that movie so much, (was one of the worst movies I saw in theaters in years). Anyways, this is an enjoyable B-grade thriller worth a watch. Don't let the two negative low ball reviews scare you away.

When "Delirium" begins, there is no development of the character Tom, performed by Topher Grace. The first impression is that the film is a ghost story in a haunted house. But soon the mystery is gone when the viewer learns what happened to Tom twenty years ago and the story becomes highly predictable with slight possible alternatives, unless presented a huge plot point. His hallucinations; the fate of his missing mother; what happened to each member of his dysfunctional family; it is not difficult to guess what happened and is happening. The excellent Patricia Clarkson is wasted in a minor role of his probation officer. Maybe with a better budget and a more developed screenplay, the promising "Delirium" could have been a great film since the storyline is good. But anyway it is not a waste of time watching this average low-budget thriller. My vote is six.

From the crazy parole officer to the way they bluntly telegraph every single thing that's going to happen to the absurd number of plot holes and mistakes to the bad sound editing (jump scares are fine, blasting my speakers into the next apartment is not) to the fact that the main character grew up in this house but doesn't know or recognize anything about it. But the most annoying thing of all is Lynn. The weird goth spunky nosey flighty girl whose only purpose in the film is to be irritating and frustrating.

I watched the beginning and the end of the movie.
When I wanted to fill in the missing parts - I read these reviews and there was a lot of controversy.
I went on Wikipedia to clarify what was happening exactly in this movie.

I didn't expect this movie to be so good! Took about 15 minutes, but after that I was all in. The twist at the end didn't disappoint either!!! SOLID THRILLER!!!

Nothing about this movie is believable. Whoever wrote this knows nothing about mental health treatment, probation, or house arrest. The characters are flat. The plot is predictable and boring. I kept waiting for some intelligent, shocking twist to somehow tie this mess together. Nope. It's just a mess.
The movie did succeed in executing a few jump scares and it made me chuckle a couple of times at the main character's awkwardness. I can't think of anything else positive to say about it.
When the movie ended my husband said "I'm so dissatisfied" and that about sums this up. I don't know why the actors agreed to do this; they're better than this. Leo DiCaprio clearly needs to stick to acting.

Really good to see a film that's quite original, with a storyline that builds the characters, and shows mental illness. Maybe slow at first, but the story speeds up to a huge finale that answers all the questions raised earlier on. Great camera work.

What a bunch of nonsense this film is. Ridiculous plot and standard horror story effects. It is always amusing to read reviews from armchair psychologists who find symbolism in every role and every scene. Again, what nonsense! The biggest horror here is how many viewers rated this as high as they did. And the biggest mystery is why did Patricia Clarkson sign on for her role?

This movie is not perfect there are some things that are pointless near the end, however the bulk of it was fantastic. The characters and story are explained early, so you have some background. Then what you are left with, in my opinion, is a roller coaster of emotion and wonder. It keeps you thinking and trying to figure out if what you are thinking is correct. Like I said not perfect, but about 90% of it is worth a watch. Its not a horror, ultimately a psychological thriller / mystery.

Captivating movie that keeps you guessing until the very end. Found myself second guessing conclusions as quick as they came.

Nothing but recycled scenarios and cliches. The movie makes absolutely no sense. The story was completely pointless and utterly ridiculous.
