Been there. Done that.

Inheritance (2025) is the newest movie from Neil Burger and it was very mediocre.Positives for Inheritance (2025): The performance from the lead actress was good enough for what she had to work with. I have to give props to Burger for directing this movie on an iPhone. And finally, the movie does everything it's suppose to do and it works for the most part.Negatives for Inheritance (2025): This is a movie I've watched so many times before where you have a character who hides out secrets from one of their family members and they have to help them out in a conspiracy. The villains are very forgettable and there is a twist in the movie I saw coming from a mile away. And finally, the movie is very forgettable with its execution.Overall, Inheritance 92025) is a basic spy thriller move that does nothing new aside from the generic stuff from these movies and that is just boring.

Immersion Through Handheld Storytelling

I enjoyed how the camera was weld for this film. Other reviewers I've read seem displeased by the "held camcorder" style, however I found this attempt to be a different and fresh way to use it. For instance, the shots of how pedestrians looked at the main character as she's walking through the streets. It focused on how others perceive her rather than how she perceived her surroundings. Which for the India sequences was true to form. The men are known to gawk at American women and cat call them profusely. Also, never have I felt like an actual tourist to to the many different countries visited in the movie. The tone, pace, shots, extras, and all together vibe made me feel as if I was actually visiting the pyramids in Egypt, travels a train through India, and walked the streets of South Korea. I watch a lot of film and never have felt what it must be like to be a tourist in the locations the movie was at.

Okay thriller for a Sunday evening.

Inheritance is the new thriller by the talented Mr. Burger with an international setting which was shot with an iPhone.The film was fun in parts, with an interesting premise and a tense chasing scene being the highlights.Unfortunately i found the writing lazy with stereotypical characters, predictable twists and a "gotcha" finale that you can see coming from miles away.What i didn't "get" also was the "shot with an iPhone" choice. It didn't add anything new in the handheld camera style cinematography. On the contrary, the image quality on the big screen, especially during the dark scenes and scenes with high contrast was problematic and distracting, looking cheap instead of realistic.I would recommend this film, if you don't have anything more interesting to see.
