Key opinion
Passenger is a visually evocative supernatural thriller that excels at building tension through its atmospheric cinematography and sound design. While the film effectively leverages its claustrophobic setting to create dread, the conventional script and performances prevent it from becoming truly memorable.
| Cinematography | The cinematography masterfully utilizes nighttime visuals and shadows to heighten the film's unsettling, claustrophobic atmosphere. | |
| Score | The sound design is a primary driver of the film's success in generating consistent, relentless dread. | |
| Screenplay | The screenplay relies heavily on predictable genre tropes, resulting in an experience that feels standard and unoriginal. | |
| Acting | The lead performances are serviceable but fail to elevate the material beyond familiar genre conventions. |
