The Occupant

Firstly, if you're looking for a sci-fi movie, this isn't one. I'm bewildered why it would be marketed as such. If anything, it's a wilderness survival movie, where every calamity that occurs is a result of the character making immensely dumb decisions. It's a movie that deals with guilt and mourning; but for no coherent reason and in a completely over-the-top manner.

Without giving spoilers, the movie is essentially just a string of glaring plot holes linked together with over-acting, ludicrously 'tense' music, and ridiculously inappropriate sentimentality. It's completely incoherent, and that does nothing to engage the viewer.

This is a huge miss. Don't waste 105 minutes on it.

The Good The performance of the actors and the chosen locations were very acceptable

The Bad Dialogue moved from bland to dull

The Ugly The script and story held a lot of potential which was either abandoned or ignored. Then the major plot holes that were never addressed so you never were sure if a plot hole was an abandoned plot point or not. A major point was the distance that the MC travels was both inconsistent and impossible to cover in the time given.

Basically without spoilers this is a fantasy twist to a coming to terms with death story. I quite liked it. Good acting, good story. Interesting format to explore the topic in. It's hard to place as a genre. I can imagine it being some type of norse myth, but the story is basically about dealing with death (not the person, I mean people dying)

First Off the small Sci-Fi part of it, I believe could have been Pretty much left out, of the movie,

but Ella Balinska did a nice even job with acting out this drama I personally didn't know what to expect and I wanted a more eventful survival of the wilderness type of Thriller.

But it is definitely a drama and for my taste it doesn't blend quite seamlessly, in using dream sequences it does come quite close but?? The science fiction thing with the prop is not needed as a guidance system for the viewer's especially! If it was supposed to be the premise of the movie because it wasn't, the genre of the whole thing seems quite drab and dreary although I would recommend the movie for an emotional Factor.

Where to start?

Was looking forward to this.

Sci-fi vs reality.

Human difficulty vs death

No spoilers, this is a movie of three parts and they just fail to join up.

Lots of open ends, with no answers.

Full of promise and yet delivers less and less as time goes on.

I was hoping the end would be transindetal or sci-fi laden, no such luck.
