The Tutor is a cautionary tale that being a teacher can be dangerous. Noah Schnapp’s career received a significant boost when he landed the lead role in The Tutor, although widely known as Will from Stranger Things, he took on the challenge of portraying a villainous character to showcase his growth. The movie also features Victoria Justice and Garrett Hedlund; Hedlund, who starred in Tron Legacy and Hook, adds to the star-studded cast. The chance to play an adult role is a welcome change for Justice, who’s been known for teenage roles.

In a Way The Tutor is like a baptism for more challenging roles for these actors.

Jordan Ross, who directed the thrilling movie, has previously directed two notable projects: the crime drama-thriller, “Thumper,” and the coming-of-age drama, “Strangers.”
Schnapp’s age doesn’t hinder him in portraying a formidable villain. The Tutor is a must-watch, showcasing exceptional acting skills and delivering a thrilling experience.

The Tutor Official Trailer

Jackson (Noah Schnapp) is a weird kid; something is unsettling about him. Being a billionaire’s son, many teachers wanted to be his tutor. Ethan’s fiancee (Victoria Justice) is pregnant, so he needs some extra cash to provide for her, and is one of the most in-demand tutors for rich kids, the opportunity comes to him easily. Jackson doesn’t seem to get along with his peers, but he seems to find a good friend from his tutor.

Things are all okay until Jackson starts to have some kind of crush on his teacher. He stalks him even when he is having a date with his fiance. Ethan rejected the boy’s advances because he is not into men, and Jackson is way too young. Jackson’s boy crush becomes an obsession to the point he is willing to frame Jackson for crimes. How will Ethan(Garrett Hedlund) prove his innocence against a genius with all the money and resources to ruin his life?

That is now Will! Most likely Vecna had taken over his body that's why he is evil! Sorry just a being a Stranger Things Fan and it will take a while before I stop associating him with his character Will.

Personally, I found The Tutor's plot to be super intriguing and totally one-of-a-kind. I mean, how many movies have you seen about a tutor and student relationship that goes full-on dark mode? Usually, it's the teacher that's the baddie, but in this flick, it's the student that's totally throwing us for a loop.Seriously though, The Tutor drives home just how risky an obsession can get. Jackson's actions were downright creepy and sent shivers down my spine.

Wowed by the talented cast in The Tutor, we can confidently say that Victoria Justice will nail her role and deliver a standout performance. It's refreshing to see her in a more mature character after playing teenage roles for so long. Additionally, Garrett Hedlund also looks fantastic in his role, bringing depth to the movie. The cinematography in The Tutor was also a standout, enhancing the suspenseful atmosphere and adding to the movie's overall impact.

Why did Noah Schnapps accepted this role? In a world currently hating on gays right now, he accepts a villainous gay role months after he comes out as gay. This is not the representation I wanted.

The Tutor looks like it had an eerie tension that was uncomfortable to watch between Ethan and Jackson, contributing to the movie's overall suspense. It was evident that the movie was well-crafted, from the writing to the acting. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good thriller. The trailer offered a unique commentary on the dynamics of power and obsession. The idea that one can become so infatuated with someone to the point of obsession and use their wealth and resources to manipulate and control them is a dark and chilling thought. The Tutor was definitely a movie that left a lasting impression.

Okay, can we just take a minute to appreciate how The Tutor is like the LGBTQ+ version of The Crush starring Alicia Silverstone? Like, we've got a psycho student who goes ballistic when their tutor crush rejects them for being underage. It's wild! But, seriously, the movie drives home the importance of boundaries, especially when it comes to teacher-student relationships. It's a cautionary tale that reminds us to always be mindful of those lines and not let things get too out of hand. Plus, the cast is amazing, and the suspenseful plot looks promising.
