O Visitante

The movie began actually very good and interesting. You get invested in the movie when it starts. Great beginning and you are all into the movie then comes then ending.

The ending completely RUIN the movie. The ending makes you feel that you wasted your time seeing this movie to begin with.

I hate seeing a movie when you are invested in the movie and think it is amazing, then the ending completely crash and burn the movie.

I feel the beginning and the end are like two complete different movies.

If the ending was different then this movie would have gotten a 7 stars or something similar.

But the ending bring this movie to zero.

What the hell happened at the end? This is what you think about when the movie finish.

This movie could have a much better ending and you would feel totally satisfied.

This is all I am going to say...

There was something about this one that I really liked. I think it was the potential and originality I saw within the plot. The execution of this movie was not spot on by any means but I think there is conceptually a foundation for something special.

As a whole this felt a little under developed and lost steam towards the end. A lot of the plot points felt a bit formulaic as far as horror goes, yet there was a spark of originality in there. With some reworking I think this concept could be really cool.

With that being said, this movie on its own was not unsuccessful. It was moderately entertaining even while having some hokey moments and also had some solid performances particularly by the husband.

All in all I thought this was decent, containing an adequate amount of intrigue and atmosphere. Would recommend.

Robert and his wife have had some strife, so they're moving somewhere else for a new life, to the home his wife was raised, where she started all her days, hoping joy and happiness will all be rife. It's a strain for Robert moving to this place, when under covers he discovers another face, a painted lookalike, the resemblance is a strike, not the last he'll find that occupies a space. Soon alarm bells start to sound and ring out loud, at the church there is a weird and eerie crowd, then his wife gets fertilised, things settle down, anxiousness dies, thoughts turn to names, a baby boy to get baptised.

It's not the most original variation on a theme but it has one or two tangents that may (or may not) raise an eyebrow or two, but ultimately a recycling of things you've encountered many times before.

Here's The 4K Lowedown on "The Visitor" (NR - 2022 - Prime) Genre: Thriller/Psycho

My Score: 5.6 Cast=2 Acting=7 Plot=7 Ending=5 Story=6 Intense=6 Pace=4 Suspense=5 Psycho=8 Twist=6

After a series of tragedies, A couple moves back to the wife's childhood home. After he discovers an old portrait of a man who looks like him, he goes down a rabbit hole to discover his identity.

"Just take it as a sign...you are where you were meant to be." I liked the trailer for this and the first 20 minutes were very interesting...playing way better as a psychopathic thriller than anything else. But then they seemed to run out of script, as they took the last 20 minutes of movie time and stretched it out into 70 minutes in the vein of watching grass grow. This would have been better as a short film...as it is I don't think it it was worth a watch.

The ratings this movie gets on here are a bit low in my opinion. Not that The Visitor is a movie that I will forever remember, on the contrary, I will probably forget everything about it by next week, but it's good enough to watch once. The acting from the completely unknown cast to me wasn't bad, which shows you don't necessary need big names to make a movie interesting. The story has a mysterious vibe to it, even though it's a bit predictable at one point, but overall they keep you guessing for a good while. The story isn't something we've never seen before, not very original but it's okay, I've certainly seen worse in this genre. It could have used a bit more horror scenes to make it creepier. I won't watch this movie again in the future but I also don't regret watching it.
