Lakeview Terrace reviews

Lakeview Terrace holds a 6.0/10 average from 1,186 TMDB ratings.

Lakeview Terrace is a tense, psychological thriller that stands out because of Samuel L. Jackson's powerful performance. He plays Abel Turner, a character so commanding and relentless that his presence carries the entire movie. Jackson's ability to make you both fear and understand Abel is what makes this film so gripping. The movie builds its suspense slowly, creating a tense and uneasy atmosphere that keeps you on…
— RalphRahal (6/10)

A young interracial couple has just moved into their California dream home when they become the target of their next-door neighbor, who disapproves of their relationship. A tightly wound LAPD officer has appointed himself the watchdog of the neighborhood. His nightly foot patrols and overly watchful eyes bring comfort to some, but he becomes increasingly aggressive to the newlyweds. These persistent intrusions into their lives cause the couple to fight back.
