Opus currently has a 33% rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes. The Hollywood Reporter noted, “Despite solid performances from Edebiri and Malkovich, Opus never takes off. It mostly meanders, relying on leaden expository monologues to move the plot, and rarely delivers on the promised horror of its atmosphere.”
The movie hits theaters everywhere on March 14. Watch the trailer below.
