Village Voice
Home Sweet Hell is a pleasantly unpleasant dark comedy, one that gives new meaning to "detached and subdivided" in the mass production zone. - 50
Movie Nation
Obvious and jaw-droppingly bloody, it still gives Heigl her funniest role in years. - 30
The Dissolve
Although the film appears to be aiming for pitch-black humor, it’s all so mirthless that the result is genuinely ugly. - 30
Los Angeles Times
A muddle of tired themes, bad behaviors and gruesome set pieces. - 25
New York Post
Dreadful, misogynist slog of a film. - 20
Variety
Heigl’s performance as a coolly murderous model housewife is the only real reason to even consider watching Home Sweet Hell, an otherwise flailing and risible tale of adultery, extortion and suburban malaise that suggests a poor woman’s “Gone Girl” — one stripped of all tension, style and subtext, and instead rendered with a level of over-the-top gore that would give even David Fincher pause. - 20
New York Daily News
A dark comedy that isn't funny and a marriage satire that doesn't break new ground. - 16
The A.V. Club
Katherine Heigl has exactly one funny moment in the dire black comedy Home Sweet Hell, which is still one more than anybody else has.
