Critics Consensus

A stylish ride weighed down by the litany of clichés it picks up along the way, Passenger drives in circles but has some memorable bumps and jolts during the journey.

It is a fairly solid bit of genre craftwork that is a lot more impressive than its desultory release might suggest. Go to Full Review

It’s the genre equivalent of an airbag that deploys already half-deflated. Go to Full Review

André Øvredal continues assembling eerie images, but supports them with the goofiest tale this side of a campfire. Go to Full Review

It may be setting the bar a bit low to call this a success, but it's a film that does exactly what it needs to do and does it well. Go to Full Review

As with most movies, the problems with Passenger start with a lazy script and extend from there. Go to Full Review

…a fairly standard issue horror movie, passable but derivative and predictable in the extreme. Passenger might give some horror fans a lift, but for most audiences, there’s likely to be a better ghost-train ride arriving before too long… Go to Full Review

Jonathon 1h Did not meet my expectations. I recommend checking it out whenever it’s available on Paramount+. While some of the jump scares did get me, others were predictable. See more Eric A 1h Not good at all. A lot of parts in the movie made no sense. See more Erik S 1h I enjoyed the jump scares. Some gore was good as well. Some continuity issues toward the end. Overall I would give it a 5 out of 10 See more Troy L 2h Not the best, few jump scenes. See more Calvin B 4h BETTER THAN EXPECTED See more Mike 4h Real Surprising & Trippy ! Must watch !
