I See You

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.

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.

"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.

We're not quite sure where we are with this often deliriously directed horror thriller. From the opening scene, Adam Randall directs former actor Devon Graye's twist-packed story with relish, taking every opportunity to infuse the recognisably comfortable home life of the regular family line-up - affable Dad, smiling-through-adversity Mum and bratty, sullen kid. As we discover, they all have their tales to tell. So do other characters we meet later on when perspectives on events change and things become darker still.

Supernatural elements appear to make way for a more tangible, home invasion. But don't be disheartened; this is a chiller alright, even if doesn't quite become an outright horror. The camerawork is so sly and suspenseful, you might find yourself leaning forward in your chair trying to see round corners, or behind silhouettes of the characters to get a clearer look as to what is going on. It's all aided by the terrific soundtrack by William Arcane, which is available to buy.

Some reviewers suggest that 'I See You' gets a little lost in its wealth of twists and turns, but I think they are all judged just right. My score is 7 out of 10.

This movie was not what I expected. It actually turned out to be a really decent thriller. Once it kicks into gear, it goes. And it's a fun ride.
