Even if this movie doesn’t achieve a great epiphany at the end of the darkest route, it offers a great showcase for Gallner in particular.

Rated: 3/4

Variety

Proves sneakily effective with its low-key approach to several kinds of violence.

Daily Record (UK)

The climactic diner scene sums up the film as a whole; tight, tense and dialogue-heavy with two young actors wonderfully playing off each other, led by a delightfully dark Gallner.

A sinister joy ride about reclaiming the driver's seat.

LA Weekly/Village Voice

There are simply too many scenes with Benson pointing a gun at people and yelling, “Shut the f— up!” After a while, it feels rote and rehashed in a movie that was anything but up to that point. Even with the road bumps, it’s a thrilling ride overall.

Ultimately, The Passenger makes itself passive to its characters’ reality, and in turn, renders us passive observers of the outcome.

To the ones looking for a suspense, action and blood, this is not the point of this movie. This a drama. A great drama and I really enjoyed.

Too much ridiculous droning talking in the car.....could have edited a lot of that dialogue out..Did not get an M.O for the worker (Branson) doing this, at least it wasn't clear to me. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Solid performance all around, good plot. I'd definitely recommend, there is a deeper message under all the violence, & I feel most of us deep down can relate to the characters in some way or another. Dark be as it may there is definitely some comedy mixed in there if you catch it. Kept me interested throughout.
