Drop was a really good, fun popcorn movie which had me guessing (badly) throughout.
Although the ending was slightly far fetched.

her racing back to the house and the hitman timings just didn’t really work. She should have waited for the poison to set in. Or call the police on route or something.
Also the stab and gun wounds that no one died from. It was giving Scream 6.
Finally, how did he manage to get the dollar bill in the food?
The sister trolling her at the hospital was a major laugh out loud moment however.

Just watched Red Eye based on the similarities suggested. Very good but yes very similar final act campery.
At least she used her phone to good use when it worked.

Drop was a blast. A proper thriller that kept things tense and exciting throughout. Only ventured into slight camp but never outright ridiculous. Meghann Fahy ate.
Drop was solid. A more stylish yet less well paced Red Eye B-movie. Meghann is a damn star, the main hunk was making me feral with that stach, the big ass text on screen was making me SCREAM in my theater full of three other people(is this flopping?!), the babysitter stuff was shockingly non-existent, the score was over the top and perfect.
Whoever told Mr. Landon he could top the opening credits of Final Destination 5....you did nothing of the sort.

Pretty much how I felt about it. The window scene was a snatch though, and it looked stylish as fuck in places, but I was mostly whelmed.
Either way, sadly, Drop flopped.
I’d rather it did well at the box office than have a few people download it in a few weeks, contributing nothing.

I also thoroughly enjoyed Drop, although we thought Brandon Sklenar really mumbled his lines at times. The high end restaurant setting was excellent and all the actors playing the restaurant staff were spot on.
The poor bartender though, getting literally knifed in the back, Christ. Wish we'd had a hospital update on her.
The way most the reviews at the time said the final act was where the film faltered and yet for me it's probably my favourite part of the movie.
This is why I don't trust reviewers. How could any other ending have been nearly as good as we got? 20 minutes of pure adrenaline and cunt.
I saw Drop yesterday, and while obviously not a Red Eye classic, I had great fun with it. Queen turning the tables on a twatty man is my favourite genre.
This looks very promising - one for my The Substance/Titane/Black Swan girlies!
They couldn't have Substance'd that trailer any harder which is a real shame from a marketing perspective, but this looks pretty promising!
