The Hollywood Reporter
If the film ultimately lacks the narrative focus necessary to make it stick in your waking memory, its shocking images may well haunt your nightmares.

Los Angeles Times
Caught hits the usual beats, but with an unusually strong cast and original characters.

The New York Times
Underwritten and a smidge too long, Caught is marred by an over-excited musical score that browbeats where it should tease. Yet the movie’s bleak and brutal tone works, as does the visitors’ bizarrely unstable behavior.

Variety
Instead of emphasizing tense action and atmosphere — the usual limited-budget solutions — the filmmakers here seem to think having their characters nervously chatter on about their situation in reams of clumsy dialogue will do the trick. It does not.

This movie has a really promising set-up, and spends the bulk of its run time behaving like it's building up to an interesting reveal. Problem is, the reveal never comes... which is even more disappointing considering the teasing semi-reveal ("dear god! there's something in this photo!" but they never show it.) This really just feels like half a movie at best, and the half we do see is just standard home invasion/hostage family fare with nothing particularly fresh to it, let alone an actual payoff after spending 90 minutes of aimless buildup. The bad guys are unusual, which makes you want to see the movie through to see what their deal is... but with no reveal as to their true nature, they just end up being weird and unsatisfying.
