No dejes de mirar

Because I'm very kind by nature, I'm not going to mention any of the actors in this turkey by name. They suffered enough while making it: stumbling around in the dark, running, and speaking dialog that is unrelated to human speech.

Sony Pictures sat on this for right at three years before giving it a one night very limited release. That should tell you something.

If you want to watch a home invasion movie that has real suspense I'd suggest YOU'RE NEXT. The title of this epic tells us to keep watching, but I'll confess to using the fast forward button more than once. It should have been called WATCH SOMETHING ELSE.

I thought it could give much more, but unfortunately it didn't turn out the way I wanted. Actually, it might be an interesting choice among home invasion movies, but it has many shortcomings. It's not self-explanatory. The acting seems to be at a low level. The plot is not impressive. An interesting start but no sequel. It had to be smarter, better quality and scarier. They had the materials to do this. Most of the film takes place in darkness and is shown from some camera angles. Supposedly people see what's happening on the internet. If it's being published, why isn't anyone doing anything to help? Why don't they have a scene? Does no one live where they live? Some questions remain in the air. It will not satisfy those who love the genre.

Why does there always have to be some obvious cash-grab to set up a sequel? Some movies are just perfect as stand-alone titles, and this could have been one of them. So many red herrings that never led anywhere. VERY disappointed.

This is one of the worst wastes of time I've ever experienced. Im not sure why the family didn't just walk out the front door at the beginning. I guess then we wouldn't have movie. I'm also not sure how the killer(s) can make the lights flicker throughout the house...sometimes they work and sometimes not. Oh and that drone somehow has an endless battery life, flying around the entire movie. It takes FOREVER for anything to develop and the characters continuously do stupid stuff that just makes you angry. For example, stun the killer but then don't grab his weapon for protection later...or actually make sure he's dead. Or, on your way trying to sneak out of the house, make sure you stop to grab some gauze that happens to be in the kitchen to wrap up that cut on your arm. Absolutely nothing about this movie is good at all. Avoid at all cost .

This is your run of the mill home invasion with all the same screaming, getting locked in and slow attempts to find justification for what is happening. Bella Thorne is the stand out actress, who does a fair job of caring this film to its conclusion. However, even with her B++ acting the movie falls short because it has been done so many times and I think most horror/thriller fans are starved for something new. It is also a total setup for a sequel and I hate when movies have an ending that straight up lets you know that you haven't got the whole story. This isn't an awful film but it fails to satisfy.
