Reviews
"Trigger" received predominantly negative reviews from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, it has a rating of 3.4/10, indicating generally unfavorable responses. Many reviewers criticized the film for its uneven pacing and lack of character development, which made it difficult to engage with the story or invest emotionally in the protagonist's journey. While Chase Anthony's performance was occasionally noted for its earnestness, critics generally found the script lacking depth and cohesion. There was disappointment expressed over the film's handling of sensitive psychological themes, which some felt was superficial and clichéd rather than insightful or original. On the technical side, the film's cinematography and atmosphere were cited as its few strengths, contributing to moments of suspense, though not enough to elevate the overall experience. Unlike more acclaimed psychological thrillers, "Trigger" did not resonate well with audiences seeking a compelling and nuanced exploration of trauma. Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes do not have enough professional reviews to form a consensus, but audience feedback aligns with the lukewarm reception seen on IMDb.
