For its opening day in France, The Mandalorian & Grogu only drew 83.5K admissions — slightly below Solo: A Star Wars Story at 89K. Word of mouth is decent.

'Passenger' Review Thread

I will continue to update this post as reviews come in.

Rotten Tomatoes: Rotten

Critics Consensus: N/A

Critics Score Number of Reviews Average of Rated Reviews
All Critics 50% 26 5.40/10
Top Critics 50% 4

Metacritic: 50 (8 Reviews)

Sample Reviews:

Benjamin Lee, Guardian 2/5 - We’re never really thrust on to the road with the film, occupying a seat alongside them. Instead, we’re stuck half-watching from afar, dozing our way through a journey that takes us, and the horror genre at large, back rather than forward.

William Bibbiani, TheWrap - This movie is like a car ride through Cawker City, Kansas, that doesn’t stop at The World’s Largest Ball of Twine.

Alison Foreman, IndieWire B- - “Passenger” may lack the interpersonal and mythological complexities required of a proper, obsession-worthy classic. But Øvredal is nevertheless skilled at trapping his audience inside a disorienting, semi-liminal space where anything can happen.

Linda Marric, HeyUGuys 4/5 - While not entirely perfect, Passenger still manages to deliver enough tension, atmosphere, and genuinely unnerving moments to make for a highly effective horror experience.

SYNOPSIS:

After a young couple witnesses a gruesome highway accident, they soon realize they did not leave the crash scene alone, as a demonic presence called the Passenger that won't stop until it claims them both turns their van life adventure into a nightmare.

[Crosspost] Hi Reddit - I’m Johnnie Burn, Oscar-winning sound designer behind The Zone of Interest, Poor Things, Under the Skin, Nope, Hamnet, Bugonia, The Favourite, The Lobster, and TUNER. My mum once said: “What do you mean you do the sound on films? They sound alright to me.” Let me explain. AMA

I organized an AMA/Q&A with Johnnie Burn, Oscar-winning sound designer, editor, mixer, and supervisor. He's known for his work on The Zone of Interest (which he won the Oscar for), Hamnet, Poor Things, Under the Skin, Bugonia, Nope, The Favourite, The Lobster, Waves, 28 Years Later, The Killing of a Sacred Deer, and tons more. He's probably the world's best working sound designer.

It's live here now in r/movies for anyone interested in asking a question:

https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/1tjiitz/hi_rmovies_im_johnnie_burn_oscarwinning_sound/

He will be back at 3 PM ET today to answer questions. I recommend asking in advance. Please ask there, not here. All questions are much appreciated!

His new movie, Tuner, is out in theaters everywhere next week, starring Leo Woodall, Havana Rose Liu, and Dustin Hoffman, directed by Oscar-winner Daniel Roher.

Trailer:

https://youtu.be/rdlOZhl-nSA?si=fl-EMvv72dK-vdFS

Synopsis:

With his once-promising musical career over, he works across New York with his mentor Harry Horowitz (Academy Award-winner Dustin Hoffman), encountering a range of characters, including composition student Ruthie (Havana Rose Liu), with whom he forges an unexpected connection. Niki’s safecracking work threatens his budding romance with Ruthie and pulls him into increasingly dangerous territory. Blending romance, drama, and the taut suspense of a heist thriller, Tuner also features performances from Tony Award®-winner Tovah Feldshuh, Lior Raz, with Jean Reno.

Thank you :)

>Yesterday's anticipation was all for The Mandalorian and Grogu . The new film in the Star Wars saga debuted with €358,720 and an average of €886 in 405 theaters. Obviously, the film will need to be evaluated after the weekend to understand its multiplier compared to its opening day.

>Referring to our newsletter Cineguru Intelligence , a comparable film could be Indiana Jones and the Destiny Quadrant , also produced by Lucasfilm, which – released on Wednesday, June 28, 2023 – debuted with €380,444, for a Sunday night gross of €2,406,796 and a final total of €6,301,857. The Mandalorian therefore starts in the same vein.

Will Minions 3 continue the franchise streak of over $900 million+?

Wondering what is the predictions for my son's biggest cinema event of the year: Minions and Monsters aka Minions 3.

First Minions movie was a break out hit, scoring over a billion back when few animated movies did (it was the second highest at the time). Second one didn't do quite as well in 2022 like most franchises post-COVID, but still had a VERY respectable box office finish probably partially thanks to the "Gentleminions" trend. But Despicable Me 4 made close to the same in 2024 so its obvious this franchise still has gas in the tank.

Where does this one end up? Over a billion again? Under $900 million for the first time for the franchise since Despicable Me 1?

>It won’t be a long stop home, though, because she’ll be on her way back to Atlanta to play Kara again, in Gunn’s “Superman: Man of Tomorrow,” as the DCU continues to build on itself. “She’s a major part of what we’re doing,’” Safran says.
