The Stranger

Good acting, but boring as hell. I stuck with it waiting for a payoff. Hint, there is none.

Australian cinema loves bleak storylines and this is no exception. Joel Edgerton and the “based on a true story” plot makes this well worth the watch.

I never turn something off thinking it will get better. I don't think i have ever been more surprised by the good reviews than i was with this. This was so slow and just not that good at all.

Most of the screen is black most of the time. The acting is bland and the dialogue is uninspired. The overall plot is slow, boring, and needlessly bleak.

After seeing the high percentage of people liking this and appreciating the acting of Joel Edgerton we watched it. What a big time let down. This movie was terrible.So slow moving and boring. Please don’t waste your time. I’d rather watch paint dry. No bueno !!

Creepy and brooding - the excellent acting is bogged down by a plot that advances too slowly, and too predictably, toward a dark ending.

Man I love Sean Harris. Excellent gloomy style and delivery from the whole cast, thoroughly enjoyed.

Over-rated serial killer and crime drama is a little too slow for my taste.

This was slow but engaging. A little tough to follow at first but the 2 leads make this worthwhile

Starts off slow but gets addicting onwards. The acting by both leads is really good.
