Reception
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 24% of 21 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 4.3/10. On Metacritic, Hypnotic holds a score of 33 out of 100 based on 5 critics, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews".
The Guardian's Benjamin Lee gave the film 1/5 stars, writing, "For someone under the spell, an hour can feel like a minute, an enviable experience for anyone actually watching Hypnotic, an unrewarding slog being fished out of the garbage for Halloween no tricks or treats, just tripe." Christy Lemire, writing for RogerEbert.com, gave it 1/4 stars. She said the film "only occasionally rises to the potential of its wild premise, thanks mostly to a crazy-eyed, licking-his-chops performance from Jason O'Mara. He knows exactly what kind of material he's working with here. For the most part, though, Hypnotic is dopey, but never quite dopey enough."
G. Allan Johnson of the San Francisco Chronicle was more positive, saying the film was "the kind of made-for-cable-level movie where a pedestrian script... with the usual horror cliches is elevated by strong acting, no-nonsense direction and a couple of neat twists." Lena Wilson of The New York Times wrote, "While the resulting cat-and-mouse dynamic is predictable, particularly if you've ever watched a Lifetime movie, Hypnotic takes its cartoonishness to admirable heights."
