If the “Master of Suspense” himself, Alfred Hitchcock, were still with us and making movies in 2025, I think they’d look a whole lot like “Drop.” This new thriller flick has huge Hitchcock energy, and that’s one of the biggest compliments I can give any movie in the popular thriller genre. Director Christopher Landon understood the assignment and nailed it perfectly.
Starring Meghann Fahy (who you may recognize from “The White Lotus”), it’s a consistently entertaining thriller movie, and while it doesn't radically depart from the genre fundamentals, it offers an engaging premise, plenty of suspense and just enough well-timed twists to keep viewers on their toes. Plus, it all builds to a high-stakes ending that fully commits to the bit.
