Entertainment Weekly
Hale and Posey are likable leads and director Jeff Wadlow (Kick-Ass 2) injects proceedings with a propulsiveness which allows you to mostly ignore the odd plot strand which doesn’t really pay off or the general air of preposterousness. - 67
IndieWire
Truth or Dare doesn’t aspire to groundbreaking heights, but it’s got just the right mix of laughs and scares to keep viewers engaged with the ridiculous concept they signed up to watch — and a welcome finale that suggests the game could come back for another round in the future. - 60
The Guardian
The director, Jeff Wadlow, has a puppyish eagerness to impress, shock and entertain and as silly as the film might get, it’s never dull. - 40
The Hollywood Reporter
The movie not only fails to represent the peak of the young Blumhouse shingle's output (Get Out is not their only inventive film), but gets silly in ways that we've seen on screen for decades. - 40
TheWrap
The premise of Truth or Dare is needlessly convoluted, and it is overloaded with information and side characters. - 38
Movie Nation
Cut rate horror like this, they’re just girls in revealing outfits and boys drooling after them — until the next coed gets killed. Preferably after her big make-out scene. - 38
Slant Magazine
Director Jeff Wadlow's Truth or Dare is a startlingly mean-spirited but otherwise dimwitted horror film. - 38
The Seattle Times
Watch this movie and you might die, of boredom.
