Critics Sentiment

Jason and Pamela reveal COVID revenge motive for Benji
The film drops significantly when the COVID revenge motive is revealed, with critics finding it corny compared to the grounded thriller that preceded it.
Sick starts strong with an effective Scream-inspired opening and maintains solid tension through its home invasion sequences. The film peaks during its brutal chase and fight scenes in the middle act, but stumbles when the COVID-themed motive is revealed, which many critics found gimmicky or poorly integrated. Despite a competent finale, the film never fully recovers from its third act revelation.
