Never Let Go Reactions Call Horror Movie ‘Brutal’ & ‘Brilliant,’ Praise Halle Berry

As a seasoned gamer and horror movie aficionado who has braved countless virtual nightmares, I can confidently say that the early reactions to Never Let Go have piqued my interest like never before. Having grown up on classics such as The Exorcist and Alien, this psychological thriller/horror seems to be a promising addition to my horror hall of fame.

Initial responses to “Never Let Go” have praised this horror film helmed by Alexandre Aja, who previously directed Crawl, as “exceptional,” “grim,” “unsettling,” and other laudatory terms.

On September 20, 2024, the film “Never Let Go” will make its way to U.S. cinemas, distributed by Lionsgate. In addition to Berry, this movie features Percy Daggs IV and Anthony B. Jenkins as its main stars.

In this fresh psychological thriller/horror film, a sinister force overpowers the world, leaving only their home and their strong familial bond as sanctuary for a mother, portrayed by Academy Award winner Halle Berry (Monster’s Ball, 2001), and her twin sons. To remain united at all costs, they bind themselves together with ropes, relying on each other for support. However, when one of the boys starts to question the existence of this evil, their unbreakable connection is tested, leading to a harrowing battle for survival.

The first reactions to Never Let Go have now emerged online. 

What are people saying about Never Let Go?

Creepy Kingdom founder James H. Carter II wrote on X, “ It was dark, bleak, and disturbing, with incredible performances, and a haunting score! Masterful filmmaking and is destined to become a horror classic.”

Founder of Nightmarish Conjurings, Shannon McGrew, commented, “Sometimes, the horror genre reveals a hidden gem, and Alexandre Aja’s #NeverLetGo is just that – grim, intense, and unsettling. Bypass the trailers and reviews; simply watch it when it debuts on September 20th. You won’t want to miss this extraordinary film.

Many reactions to the movie praised not only Berry’s performance but Daggs IV and Jenkins’ as well.

Sean Tajipour from Nerdtropolis just shared that he recently watched #NEVERLETGO, and it’s clear he found it a gripping experience! Halle Berry gave an outstanding performance, while Anthony B. Jenkins and Percy Daggs IV stood out in this film. The suspense and dread were palpable, keeping him at the edge of his seat throughout.

Bill Bria from Slash Film shared his thoughts, saying, “Ever since I watched #NeverLetGo, it’s been constantly on my mind and I find myself growing quite fond of it. Halle Berry, Percy Daggs IV, and Anthony B. Jenkins deliver outstanding performances. The cinematography is stunning, the creature effects are fantastic, and there’s plenty to ponder. Aja’s twisted take on a fairy tale.
