Amazon.com:
Director George Ratliff, who also made Hell House, a fascinating documentary about Christian haunted houses constructed to scare kids straight, offers his version of the possessed child horror movie with Joshua. In the establishing scenes, nine year-old piano prodigy, Joshua (Jacob Kogan), is a vision of perfection, even as his new baby sister, Lily, takes up their parents' time a little too often. As time unfolds, indicated cinematically by text describing the baby's days alive on screen, Joshua's jealousy serves as the springboard for his mental and physical manifestations of violence and detached emotion. Somewhere mid-film, parents Brad and Abby Cairn (Sam Rockwell and Vera Farmiga) begin to piece together Joshua's disturbing behavior, but as they seek him help Joshua finds ways to sabotage their plans. Like many of the great films about evil-doing children, such as The Omen, The Exorcist, and The Bad Seed, the star's ability to play a maladjusted youth is all, and Jacob Kogan does a wonderful job. Additionally, Rockwell and Farmiga excel at portraying parents fraught with fear and exhaustion. Joshua is not a gory movie as is some of its predecessors, but there is enough psychological tension to make this drama worthy of honor amongst other films in its genre. —Trinie Dalton

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - They dont make good horror movies anymore...
This was the absolute most boring movie I have ever seen. Im not kidding when I say nothing entertaining happend in this movie. TERRIBLE!!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Boring, borderline pretentious and painful
Opting for greatness, does not make things great. Shades of Rosemary's Baby, Birth and other Manhattan psychological thrillers have inspired this to tedium. Nothing really ever happens. Lots of noisy post-partum screaming, discordant and overplayed piano music, constant infant crying and grimacing all add together like some expensive pharmaceutical ad for a migraine pill. Run away.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Lambs To The Slaughter...
JOSHUA isn't a bloody, jolting, or overtly terrifying movie. It's not supposed to be. JOSHUA is unsettling and creepy because of the subject matter. This is a portrayal of sociopathy in the body of a 9yo boy. A boy who has no real social limits or moral barriers whatsoever. This is the story of a family, slowly undermined and ultimately destroyed by the machinations of their own flesh and blood. Imagine your own child plotting your downfall, in a way that cannot be discerned until it's far too late. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - TOO INTELLIGENT FOR THE MASSES
This movie portrayed a sociopathic child with a genius I.Q. and what could happen when he felt unloved and upstaged by his baby sister. The acting and directing are near perfect. The ending scene and music is genius and ties it all together nicely.
Note: reading the reviews (both good and bad) scared me more than the movie.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - bad ending
i really hate endings that are thought provoked and just leave you hanging..... all through this movie the director and actors had me so unbelievably angry with this child, and i really did want to see that he had not fooled everybody. hopefully, that was what his uncle's last scene with him was about. that he glimpsed something in the evil little boy...julie from milwaukee
