The premise—a young man's romance threatened by a strange ride share driver—holds promise, yet the execution feels uneven. While the performances are solid, especially from the lead, the pacing drags in parts, making it hard to maintain engagement. The atmosphere is undeniably tense, and there are moments that genuinely provoke thought about the nature of friendship and trust. However, it occasionally leans too heavily into awkward territory, losing the charm of its romantic elements. Stalker has its merits, but it may leave some viewers feeling a bit lost, unsure of where the journey ultimately leads. Show less
