The Visitor keeps humming along even as it goes totally bonkers near its final act. Go to Full Review

“The Visitor” isn’t a terrible movie, just a tired one. Go to Full Review
Nathaniel Muir AIPT 10/28/2022
The script keeps things streamlined. There is a steady escalation leading to some graphic scenes of violence. There are lots of reveals in a short period of time – one of which is particularly disgusting – but the entire watch is an entertaining one. Go to Full Review

The Visitor is doppelgänger horror in more ways than one. Audiences have seen it all before. Go to Full Review

The Visitor goes down like a spoonful of melatonin, and is dryer than a folkloric horror tumbleweed. Go to Full Review

David L Oct 29 Not sure why this is getting such low reviews. This was a very entertaining horror movie. Is it breaking new ground in the horror genre? No. But it’s still a really good watch. You could definitely do much worse. See more Korra N Jul 19 Disappointingly blant & uneventful. See more Keith S @KeithLD Mar 10 Great for suspense and mild horror, not really great if your looking for a great movie storyline. Quality and actors/actresses did a great job. Just seemed like they were tossing ideas in scene by scene to figure out what the name should mean or what the visitor is. See more Kellye L Jan 3 This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It was slow, it made no sense, the acting was awful, and after watching it I have no idea what it was supposed to be about. The only good thing was it was free on Prime. I’d really be ticked if I had paid for this garbage. See more Lawrence C 11/03/2024 A dumb premise that leads to bloodless series of embarrassingly bad non-events. See more 11/03/2024 What a horrible movie. Wasted time I'll never get back. Boring. Not horror. Just a drama. See more Read all reviews
