Ben Wise

I don't care what anyone says in an oddly high quantity, this movie is fantastic. The acting is great almost 100% of the time, it visually looks very nice especially certain displays of bodily harm, and the dissonant soundtrack makes tense scenes tenser. The plot is a fantastic and thrilling mindscrew that will satisfy anyone that wants one, although I suppose if you don't want a mindscrew it might make you mad... but that's just unfortunate for you then.

The Occupant is a very unnerving but interesting and somewhat understandable story of a man who will do whatever it takes to return to his best life. The ways he goes about this are extremely calculated and horrifying to view from the beginning, and crescendo dramatically up until the ending. I couldn't help but mentally compare protagonist Javier to similar characters taking drastic premeditated measures to get what they want, and I like Javier for being a protagonist that gets things done quickly and efficiently (those who have seen the movie will know what he does when blackmail is taken too far). The film is a rollercoaster of conflicting emotions right up until the chilling final shot. And I completely disagree that it's unbelievable. I think every event in the movie makes perfect logical sense. And is also cool. So watch the movie if you want to see a man coldly tear his way to the top! (You should want to see that.)
