Reaction: The box office performance of this film certainly was aided by its cast of rising young stars. That push helped the film become the 7th profitable film in a row for the studio, which certainly helps make up for the disastrous early rounds.



"Hideaway stands out with its provocative, timely concept that delves into the story’s tremendous blend of erotic tension and psychological manipulation especially under the direction of someone like Luca Guadagnino. However, it would've benefitted from richer character motivations and a tighter build-up to its climactic reveal." - Homer Willard, GQ




"The king of erotic thrillers, Roy Horne, returns with a film that, while not quite up to the dizzying heights of Poison Ivy or Natural Selection, it's still more than a fine feather in the cap. The characters all weave a dramatic tale through love and lust in the pandemic age that keeps you guessing on who loves who and what happens next. I'm not quite sure how I feel about the ending, however, and that's what's holding me back from calling this a truly great film." - Delilah Schuler, Los Angeles Times



"Hideaway is a compelling and visually stunning drama that excels in its exploration of complex human relationships and the dark side of social media culture. Luca Guadagnino's direction and the exceptional performances from the cast, particularly Timothée Chalamet, make it a must-watch. The film's ability to intertwine eroticism with psychological tension is both bold and masterful, though its provocative themes and the invasive voyeuristic twist may not be for everyone. Overall, "Hideaway" is a thought-provoking and unforgettable film that earns high marks for its artistic ambition and emotional depth." - Katie Barnes, Washington Herald
