The Foreign Exchange Student

Keep this woman away from icecaps because she could melt them by herself A crying shame that she is not get big roles in big Films. I guess Hollywood still not ready to accept gorgeous Black females.

I actually watched the 2022 movie "The Foreign Exchange Student 2: The Hunt" before watching this 2015 movie. And as I didn't particularly enjoy the 2022 sequel, I have to admit that my expectations to this first movie were extremely slim. But still, since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give the movie a fair chance.

Writer and director Jonathan Milton put together a fair enough script. Sure, "The Foreign Exchange Student" wasn't revolutionizing the thriller genre, nor did it bring anything new or particularly exciting with it, but it was a watchable enough movie for what it was.

The acting performances in the movie were, for the most parts, actually fair enough. Sure, you're not in for any award-winning performances, should you opt to watch this 2015 movie. I was not familiar with anyone on the cast list, aside from Roc Living, as I remember him from the 2022 movie, and his acting in that movie was pretty shunted, just as it was in this first movie as well.

"The Foreign Exchange Student" is hardly a movie that warrants more than a single viewing, simply because the storyline doesn't really have the contents for that. It is not a thriller that I would recommend fans of the thriller genre to rush out and get to watch.

My rating of "The Foreign Exchange Student" lands on a three out of ten stars.

This seemed like a documentary on how to write/Direct your first film. The writing...wow...I was watching thinking if someone says the title of this movie one more time...the writing was forced/the directing was ... well...just was. This was a good start. Needed more time to develop.

All of the young men and the man of the house was acting as if they never been around a female before. There was no structure was in the home of the family who housed the young lady and she just done whatever she pleased. Who wrote this nonsense?

Not bad; the beginning was definitely intriguing and the acting wasn't bad. The movie itself isn't scary but it's interesting to see how the girl navigates her way in and out of trouble. If you are bored and looking for something of drama/thriller essence, I'd give this a watch. This would be a good movie for anyone age 16-24.
