I See You: Das Böse ist näher als du denkst

I hated this film to begin with. I found it boring, and like some lame c-grade horror flick, with half the scenes barely even making sense. It felt like a Lifetime movie.

Then the film shifted dramatically and changed into something completely different. It was like watching two separate films, with a heap of separate stories taking place at once. It did this effectively though, and managed to weave all the strands together quite well. It certainly drew me in and captivated me throughout the second half.

I really didn't see some of the twists and turns coming. I'm glad I persisted through what I found to be a tedious first half hour. I See You felt like smart writing by the end, and definitely had a little swagger and style in the way it was made.

One of those films that leaves you kind of stunned by the end.

If you want a movie that offers some good suspense and one that does a pretty good job with misdirection along with some WTF head scratching moments then you can't go wrong with this film.

"I See You" is a Crime - Drama movie in which we watch a detective trying to find a missing young boy while he and his family starting experiencing some strange events at their house.

I liked this movie because it had a simple but very interesting plot with some plot twists that I did not expect and made it even more interesting. The direction which was made by Adam Randall was good and he did an excellent job without using any unnecessary jump scares that could lower the quality of his movie. I also have to admit that I was surprised with the very good interpretation of Helen Hunt who played as Jackie Harper and she was simply amazing. Some other interpretations that have to be mentioned were Owen Teague's who played as Alec, Jon Tenney's who played as Greg Harper and Libe Barer's who played as Mindy. Finally, I have to say that "I See You" is a nice crime movie and not a horror movie so, if you want to watch a classic horror movie then you should watch another movie and not this one. I recommend this movie because it feels very real and I am sure that you will feel it too, after watching it.

Very well directed with eerie feel. I often wonder why more thrillers like this don't utilize the power of sound and musical scores to build tension in a scene. Anyways I was pleasantly surprised by this in a year that hasn't released many good movies. I hope to see more from this director!

This is a very entertaining, clever thriller.

I would class this as an intelligent piece of writing, somehow it's a thriller within a thriller, it has a jigsaw feel to it, you will watch it and have many questions, how, what and who. Those questions will be answered as the film progresses, the intensity also increases, it is very satisfying.

What starts out as a relatively mild thriller soon morphs into something a lot darker, it goes through phases, ending as a very dark, twisted thriller.

Nicely acted, Helen Hunt does a good job, but all the cast are good.

It's a fine watch. 8/10.
