I See You

The first thing I did after watching this movie was looking for the name of the music composer. Because the sound design is incredible. Really good. It creates a lot of the atmosphere, which is what this movie is about: creepy atmosphere! It is not about paranormal activity, no ghosts, no monsters, no gore, no terror. Nevertheless creepy with high tension. A psycho thriller and horror thriller. Unpredictable with surprises and twists in the story. Don't read too much about it before watching it. It would destroy the experience. It is a great, realistic story.

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.

8/10

Plot: Jackie Harper is trying to fix her marriage after her affair with her high school sweetheart but her husband and son is not making it easy. To make things worse there is a creepy presence in the house.

The poster seemed cool and I thought it would be cool horror film. It is actually a mystery/thriller film, not a horror film.

There are three phases in the film. First phase revolves around the Harper family and the little strange occurrences that happens around the house. As the film progresses those strange events become increasingly creepy. There is also the drama centering the unfaithfulness of the wife. First phase takes almost 60 percent of the run time. I loved this phase, I had no idea what was going on, lots of questions were running around in my head. Then comes the second phase which takes a totally different turn in terms of cinematography and the tone of the film. Some hand held shots were used which distracted me from the ambience created by the first phase. This is the weakest phase of the film. Thank god it was the shortest phase as well.

The last phase shows lots of details and tries to tie the story lines. I liked most part of this phase as well. The tone of the film shifts here as well.

The acting was good by all the actors and music was nice as well. The frog mask is creepy. There were some solid twists which surprised me.

As the film has distinct phases and goes from mystery to thriller to action the overall experience diminishes a little. The production value is low and sometimes feels like a low budget TV-movie. There are some inconsistencies in the story.

I enjoyed the film. It is a clever film with some genuine surprises in the story. I liked the creepy ambience of the film and also the little dramas between the characters. Short run time also works in the favor of the 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.

The movie is different from usual horror/mystery films - not involving much gore/torture still maintains very good story-line and puzzle

1st half of the movie is originating puzzles, complicating the story; while the other half is filling in the gaps to solve that puzzles in a very unique way of back-patching/filling parallel events

Also, the sound-effects are very unique and different from usual, heard a bit new things

And, Yes, Passively marketing a few new terminologies and Singers/Songs :)

Overall very decent movie to spend good time and deserves to be in Horror/Mystery Category
