The Stranger in My Home

The Stranger in My House started off strong and had a lot of potential. The premise was intriguing, and the setup kept me interested. However, as the film progressed, the story began to rely heavily on unrealistic coincidences. By the final third, it shifted from suspenseful drama into pure fiction that felt disconnected from the grounded tone it started with. It seemed like the director lost their narrative direction, and unfortunately, the ending fell flat.

By the end, I wasn't even sure if I was the stranger in my own house, because nothing made sense anymore. It felt like the writer threw the last 30 pages of the script into a blender, hit "purée," and filmed whatever came out. Somewhere in the middle, I think even the characters forgot what they were doing.

If you're into mystery, suspense, and absolutely no logical payoff, this might be your thing. Otherwise, you might want to stay out of this house... or at least keep the lights on and your expectations low.

Was this a made for TV movie that I just happened to catch off regular tv? If not, I seen better lifetime movies...I really expected better. I had a feeling I was in for it when a supposed "serious drama/thriller" started off the opening credits by intruding the actors like a TV show by displaying their name with a picture one after one. I started laughing more than I was on the edge of my seat. The plot itself had a chance to make for a pretty good movie, but it just was played out as well as it could have or as well as I hoped. I had never heard of this but often will watch something Inbthat manner. Many times I'm surprised and really like the movie, this was far from one of those times.

It's the first time I dedicate time to review a movie....

What just happend to the last 2h of my life?! I. Will never get them back!

The director is a genius! He was able to use techniques for coffee comercial, videoclips with light on the dancer. Have no line of thought in editing from squares every minute to no squares at all. Every scene is cut with no momentum at all with the characters they are writen by 10 year old.

How do people invest money and the actors acept to even be part of this. Its career suicide.

Please some one save the actors they were kidnapped to make this movie.

This is watching now the end of the movie...

Katie Katie sweetheart have some water.

Family movie night?

Then the director decides to use Frankenstein as a revival moment...

It just getting better as I'm writing this review... thank you!

No spoiler but it even has a moment of Call of Duty!

And a beautiful ending with scrable.

Thank you I take my words I'm inspired!

Like a hit and run!

The Stranger in My Home is a solid, twisty domestic thriller that had me hooked from the start. Sophia Bush absolutely carries this film-she's raw, emotional, and totally believable as a mom whose life unravels when a mysterious man shows up claiming her daughter was switched at birth. And let's talk about Chris Carmack for a second-menacing, mysterious, and ridiculously sexy. Like, sir, please ruin my family if you're going to look like that. The film leans a little dramatic in parts, but honestly, that's part of the fun. It's suspenseful, stylish, and just messy enough to keep you on the edge of your seat. Perfect for a cozy night in with wine and friends who love a good plot twist.

I don't know what you think this movie is but it is not what you are thinking. Definitely not what the trailer makes you think it is.

The movie has a "TV" vibe all over it. The production quality, the editing (switching between scenes), everything smells low budget.

The trailer looked intriguing. So I decided to give it a try. The acting is Okay and convincing enough but characters' actions are not believable. That is not how humans would act when being in these situations. Fortunately, the movie is not that long, which is why when I realized it wasn't worth the watch, it was already half-way through. The movie ended just like you thought it would end.
