Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 1/5 --
the direction of the film is fraught with problems, and one feels that the promising young cast deserved better than this.

Rating: 1/4 --
It might be genius compared to Single White Female 2: The Psycho, but know that The Roommate is ultimately about as sensitive as that dtv sequel sounds.

Film Freak Central
Christiansen's witless, badly acted thriller is a throwback to the early 1990s.

Kelly and Meester hit their marks and look pretty doing it, while supporting players Cam Gigandet, Billy Zane and Aly Michalka fade into the background so blandly that viewers will never remember they were there.

Rating: 1.0/5 --
Instead of attempting to create a unique thriller, the filmmakers chose to make a typical one with bland characters and lackluster twists.

Rating: 2/5 --
There are some interestingly nasty moments and some chills, but it's predictable and derivative.

Guardian
Rating: 2/5 --
A storyline that unimaginatively rehashes countless pivotal elements from other stalker-themed movies means that the whole production is a dull and pointless exercise that twists and turns in precisely the manner you expect it to.

Product Description:
An emotionally unstable college freshman (Leighton Meester) grows obsessed with her unsuspecting roommate (Minka Kelly) in Danish director Christian E. Christiansen's English-language debut. Trouble begins after a frat party, when Kelly's Sara character comes back to her dorm room smashed, pausing to meet her roommate, Rebecca (Meester), for the first time just before she rushes out of the room to puke. Both being artistic types, Rebecca gloms onto Sara's artistic yearnings and they both bond over couture culture, yet Rebecca's antisocial behavior always seems to stand in the way of them being best buds. Soon it becomes apparent that Rebecca's territorial side is something to be freaked out by, as Sara's ex-boyfriend, her pervy teacher, and anyone else that do the young artist harm will attest.
