The Visitor

Well you never know if a movie would be good or not. There are trailers that mislead you.. there are friends that love a movie but when you watch it you turn off... The only safe sign for a good horror movie is when you see lionsgate or blumhouse logo at the beginning... and for many years i 've never got disappointed...'till now... The main actor was good and he tried hard.. also the mystery at first with the paintings kind of drag you down... but everything else is so bad.. the other actors seems like were bored.. the hole movie builds something that escalates to nothing...completely slow with a twist that nobody cares about it anymore.. I am twice dissapointed cause i usually love films with mental unstable characters or religious-demonic stuff.. Hereditary and Eli are way better choices, do not waste your time on this...

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.

I mean... It's absolutely watchable, but first of all, there isn't much happening. The movie is very quiet and personally I don't think there is much suspense either.

The start of the movie was much better than the other half of the movie turned out to be.

I would say that the whole movie is meh. The movie wants to be more than it is, it tries to be deep and be different... but instead it turns out slow and hard to understand the plot.

The ending kinda ruined the whole movie. I don't usually think that the ending can ruin the whole movie, but this time I did.

I did understand the movies plot better because of the ending... but that doesn't mean that the movie or the plot was good.

I am actually kinda disappointed, I thought Blumhouse would deliver a better movie than this... but I guess that doesn't work out every time.

Soooo... in conclusion, this movie has good acting, the story is somewhat "scary" and creepy. But the slow pacing and weird ending didn't save this movie. So if you're tired, don't watch this movie, but if you're not... then maybe watch it, but don't have high expectations. Personally, this movie was NOT worth the wait for the digital release!!

I have to write six hundred characters about this? I am not sure that is possible. The Blumhouse TV films have always been hit or miss - the ones on Hulu were about 50/50, the Amazon Prime ones were similar. Now we have Epix, and the first, Torn Hearts was OK at best. Well, compared to this dreck it was a masterpiece. I don't know where to start with an actual review. The writing is lazy, derivative (to be kind), and just plain bad. It's directed competently but what does it matter when the material is just plain garbage? There's nothing here that hasn't been done before and done better. Not even worth a rainy afternoon watch.

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.
