The Passenger (2021)

Review by joshbertrammartin

The Passenger

7/10

A pleasant surprise that's well put together

I didn't know or expect anything of the movie before sitting down to watch it. All I knew is that I enjoy horror movies, as long as they're not poorly produced or lacking scares. This movie was, in fact, well produced and carried the occasional scares, thrills and gore.

The acting and character development was fantastic. The lead actor was great. The proxy father-daughter relationship he strikes up with the co-lead was well executed and you found yourself building a connection with both characters, as they build a connection with each other. There were moments of humour, with a black comedy feel at points, but this didn't detract from the horror or panic in the key moments. The ending was strong.

The horror or evil depicted was a little predictable and cliche at times, with a reasonably narrow and uneventful plot line of simply 'escape the baddie, over and over'. It could have searched deeper for a little more depth or unexpected twists or turns. Surprisingly realistic monsters, despite the reasonably constrained budget. Overall, this is a worthy horror, with good actors, and enough to keep you watching.
