Viewers find 'The Passengers of the Night' a touching and nostalgic journey through the 1980s, anchored by strong performances, especially from Charlotte Gainsbourg. The film's portrayal of a mother's resilience and the intimate setting of a night-time radio show resonate deeply, offering a blend of subtle drama and emotional depth. However, some find the pace slow and the narrative contemplative, which might not cater to everyone's taste.

👍 Charlotte Gainsbourg's performance is widely praised.

👎 The film's slow pace may not appeal to all.
