Some reviews here say it's not scary at all while others say there's an underlying threat in every scene. After seeing this movie, I have to assume the ones who think it's about nothing are white males. I honestly don't think they can comprehend just not feeling physically safe in day-to-day life. And that's not to say there's something inherently wrong with that, they've never had to feel scared or on guard in normal situations. But it'd be nice if they could recognize this as a blessing & have a little awareness that the rest of us aren't so lucky. Tyler was accutely aware that if something happened here, he was completely alone in the middle of nowhere.
No, nothing super major happens in this slice-of-life movie, but if you've ever second-guessed going to to a simple location bc you're concerned about your well-being, you'll recognize that the tension is high throughout this movie.
****SPOILERS***** And then he made the rookie mistake of letting his guard down & getting, like, wasted drunk.
Kudos to his friend (played by Christopher Abbott) for recognizing what Tyler needed in that moment - I applauded when he let Tyler have the room for the night & said "I'm locking the door behind me."
