Movie Review: The Skeleton Key (2005) Review
Critic Reviews:
Ever since The Sixth Sense, thriller “twists” have become increasingly lame and pointless, but in The Skeleton Key, it actually works quite well — and might actually be a bit funny, depending on your point of view and political affiliation.
Stirring up a humid Gothic mood and amassing a gifted roster of actors, "The Skeleton Key" is unable to ward off the nasty spirits of formula screenwriting.
– Variety
Save for its silly doozy of an ending, it’s all very boring and ridiculous.
