The Lodger is a decent neo-noir thriller that succeeds in creating a suspenseful and atmospheric experience. While it doesn't quite capture the innovative magic of the original film and falls back on familiar tropes, it still offers a stylish and entertaining mystery with solid performances and intriguing visuals. If you're a fan of noir thrillers and Jack the Ripper-inspired stories, this film will likely provide a satisfying watch, even if it doesn't break new ground.
