Get Gone Reviews & Ratings

Get Gone Echo Score Breakdown
Get Gone delivers a largely underwhelming horror experience, marked by unoriginal storytelling and technical shortcomings that dominate its reception. Critics and users alike cite weak direction, subpar cinematography, and uneven editing, while acting is frequently described as painful despite occasional praise for Lin Shaye. A few viewers appreciate its campy moments and visual quirks, yet these isolated positives do not offset the prevailing sense of boredom and forgettable execution. The net impression is one of a flawed, low‑budget slasher that struggles to engage.
Our own 0–100 rating, built from five aspects: art, character, story, the sensory experience and how well a film rewatches.
- Art & Craft 35
In terms of art and craft, the film suffers from inconsistent direction and poor technical execution. Reviewers point to shaky camera work, uninspired cinematography, and editing lapses that undermine visual coherence. A minority note occasional inventive set pieces and a striking mask design, but these are outweighed by the pervasive lack of polish. Overall, the production values fall short of genre expectations, resulting in a modestly low craft rating.
- Character & Emotion 30
When evaluating character and emotion, performances are generally described as weak, with most actors delivering unconvincing portrayals. Critics highlight painful acting and shallow character depth, while users echo similar frustrations. Lin Shaye’s presence stands out as a notable exception, receiving consistent commendation for her screen presence. Despite her contribution, the ensemble fails to generate meaningful emotional resonance, leading to a low character score.
- Story & Flow 30
The story aspect is hampered by a formulaic plot that offers little novelty or suspense. Critics and users emphasize the film's reliance on familiar slasher tropes and a lack of engaging pacing, labeling it boring and derivative. Although a few viewers mention moments that keep them on the edge of their seat, these instances are rare and do not compensate for the overall narrative weakness. Consequently, the story rating remains low.
- Sensory Experience 40
Sensory experience receives mixed feedback; many reviewers criticize the soundtrack and sound design as forgettable, yet some praise the visual style for its occasional campy flair and effective use of practical effects such as the mask. The contrast between poorly executed audio elements and sporadic visual creativity results in a moderate sensory score that reflects both the film’s deficits and its limited stylistic successes.
- Rewatch Factor 35
Rewatch factor is generally low, with the majority advising against repeat viewings due to the film's lack of depth and entertainment value. Nonetheless, a subset of viewers express willingness to revisit the movie for its occasional humor, nostalgic nods, or to appreciate Lin Shaye’s performance. This divide yields a modest rewatch rating, indicating limited but not entirely absent appeal for subsequent viewings.
