A few critiques/thoughts on Horns from Rotten Tomatoes:
"Daniel Radcliffe gives an absolutely incredible performance that Horns doesn't really seem to fully appreciate. But the ludicrous ending derails the film from what was otherwise a gripping mystery thriller." -Chris Sawin
"It seems to have been made by people who couldn't decide if their film was a horror flick, a whodunit, or a Hellboy knockoff." -Chris Nashawaty
"Horns is not quite a horror film, not quite a whodunit, not quite a comedy, indeed not quite much of anything, except a stuttering attempt to bring Joe Hill's source novel to the screen." -Brian Viner
"There are times when you will want to look away from the horrors shown on the screen but it will be hard to wipe the smile off your face." -Jack Books
