The critical consensus

Audiences will certainly want to think twice before entering these woods, but mainly because we’ve seen it all before.

A murky and unsatisfying horror movie.

**(*)(*)(*)Geoffrey MacNab, The Independent, 25/02/2016

Japan’s Aokigahara forest becomes just a generic creepy wood in this predictable scary movie starring Natalie Dormer.

**(*)(*)(*)Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 25/02/2016

Dormer is more than capable of carrying the film but The Forest feels like just another attempt to make us jump using rather obvious means.

**(*)(*)(*)Allan Hunter, Daily Express, 26/02/2016

Natalie Dormer goes in search of her twin in a not-so-scary film inspired by real-life suicides in a Japanese forest.
