Passenger (2026)

I really like the direction of this film.

I like the way the camera worked.

I think it did a really good job.

Like that opening 10 minutes, which is pretty much the entire trailer, by the way, where the camera is, it does like 360s inside the car.

Yeah.

As one of the characters is kind of, he's lost his mate and then the passenger does that.

his first attack on them.

Um, there's the scene where Maddie is walking away from the gym and camera keeps on kind of doing like a 360 pan and the van keeps on going

forward.

This one was good.

I love that.

This one was good.

And another one that I really like was when he's changing the tyre.

That was a creepy scene.

Right, we're just with the hazard lights and it's just like it's flashing.

I really thought the director did a really good job with just the choreography of that and just really setting the scene of the mood.

I liked that.

I, okay, the movie is stylish enough, but there are a few things that bothered me in the way that it was style of a substance.

In the way that the characters don't act like normal human beings.

They are just doing things to set up the imagery of all the scares.

And I give you a good example of that.

When they are watching the movie outside, and then there is this thing on the screen, They take off the sheet, and then she's holding the projector, and she's using the projector to just look where things are coming from, just to have the imagery of the face that is superimposed with the demon afterwards.

Otherwise, there is no reason whatsoever to do that.

They should just throw away.

And it feels like that several times during the movie that the characters are very contrived in the way that they are doing things just to set up the jump scares or just because we need that for the story to move forward.
