  • 1. Moviezine
    8 / 10

    Translated from swedish: For those craving jump scares and plenty of blood, "Heretic" will not satisfy their hunger. This is a film that relies on its audience being attentive and interested, a film that poses many intriguing questions about how religion functions and how it affects humanity.
    - Anna Hedlin

  • 2. Borås Tidning
    8 / 10

    Translated from swedish: Hugh Grant brilliantly portrays a malicious loner who ensnares two young missionaries in an intellectual cat-and-mouse game with life at stake. The hyped "Heretic" is an infernally nerve-wracking thriller.
    - Mats T Olsson

  • 3. Cinetaste
    8 / 10

    Translated from swedish: This is simply effective and excellent craftsmanship all the way through. Good script, good dialogues, good acting, and a creepy and unpleasant atmosphere throughout.
    - Linus Andersen

  • 4. Kulturbloggen
    8 / 10

    Translated from swedish: One can think what one wants about where the answer lands, but it is still refreshing that the film takes its point and carries it from start to finish without compromising either the idea or the characters that both grind and bump it.

  • 5. Toppraffel
    8 / 10

    Translated from swedish: "Heretic" is low-key but never boring, this is intelligent horror with a brilliant script. A fateful atmosphere hangs over the film, and at times it gets damn exciting.
    - Pidde Andersson

  • 6. Aftonbladet
    6 / 10

    Translated from swedish: A film where it is completely impossible to predict what will happen for a long time. This creates a very eerie atmosphere. But unfortunately, towards the end, it becomes a bit too much of a cliched horror film.
    - Jan-Olov Andersson

  • 8. Göteborgs-Posten
    6 / 10

    Translated from swedish: Who monitors whom - and above all for what purpose. Is there any hope, any way out, a key to freedom?

  • 11. Uppsala Nya Tidning
    6 / 10

    Translated from swedish: It is a true delight to see Hugh Grant's sullen breadth in the role of the terribly murderous and fanatical atheist in "Heretic".
    - Kasia Syty

  • 12. Filmtopp
    6 / 10

    Translated from swedish: Two-thirds of the film are wonderful - and absolutely worth laughing at, being fascinated by, and shivering through.

    Translated from swedish: After a skillfully assembled first act, unfortunately most of it fizzles out...
