Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files 2d
3/10
As the film plays out, it’s clear that Misdirection was genuinely mis-directed, poorly written and inadequately acted. Go to Full Review
Gregory Nussen Screen Rant 5d
6/10
Because everyone is lying to some degree, motives are suspect throughout, which provides for an effective, if simple, formula for persistent tension. Generic from top to bottom isn't always a bad thing, and Misdirection goes down easy. Go to Full Review

Grillo’s star wattage lights up Misdirection like Times Square on New Year’s Eve. Go to Full Review

"Misdirection" does have decently committed performances to help the endeavor achieve a few moments of tension, but the picture is pretty thin overall, lacking enough cinematic emphasis to engage. Go to Full Review
Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens Feb 6
Misdirection marks a striking tonal shift for [Kevin] Lewis, trading overt genre mechanics for a performance-driven, tightly contained thriller. Go to Full Review

TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch 2d Misdirection is a 2026 action thriller that initially shows promise, especially with Frank Grillo leading the cast. He delivers his usual intensity and physicality, and a few action sequences are well-executed and engaging. Unfortunately, those moments don’t carry the film. The pacing drags, and long stretches of flat dialogue and weak character development make it hard to stay invested. The screenplay lacks cohesion, with underdeveloped motivations and a story that drifts between twists without building meaningful stakes. Grillo does his best, but the material limits his impact, making his talent feel wasted. The twist near the end is surprising but arrives too late to redeem the film. Overall, Misdirection feels like a forgettable streaming thriller with brief flashes of competence, entertaining in parts but ultimately disappointing and unlikely to leave a lasting impression.
