Reviews

Time Out -
The film's sure-to-be-brief theatrical release is a mere stopover on the way to basic-cable eternity.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
Managing nary a single original idea throughout its 93-minute running time, the film does benefit from a cast of sexy young TV stars who should attract the desired female teen demographic.

Variety -
Formulaic and forgettable.
|
|
Los Angeles Times -
The Roommate proves that the one thing worse than a crazy, stalker roommate is one that's boring, predictable and no fun.

New York Daily News -
If ever a thriller were to inspire a collective "eh," it's got to be The Roommate. It's not a good movie, by any means, but it's also not bad enough to have fun hating on.
