See for Me

Modernized rehash of better films , even so , It would be o' k ,if only the main character wasn't so annoying and unpleasant. All gimmick about blind or deaf people in life or death situations based on the incredible and scary vulnerability , when you try to put yourself in their shoes . Here , the heroine is so stubborn , dumb and rude that you feel just kind of disgust , hence this film doesn't' work...

Basically what I'm gonna write here is echoing what a lot of others have already said about this movie. And as you can tell by the title the lead character is genuinely awful and it just put me off the film throughout.

She's not nice, she's annoying and I really don't understand why you'd make someone so frustrating to watch. More so when the point of this film is to root for this character when the break in happens. Why would I root for someone so frustrating. She's a proper "female dog" if you get me.

The plot itself isn't too bad. It's a take on the intrusion horror sub-genre so you know what you're going to get. There was one or 2 minor twists, nothing major but I can't say much more other than it got the job done. Sure, I feel they could have improved the level of suspense throughout and made better characters, but it's watchable at the end of the day.

Was it scary? No. Let's just end that one there.

So yeah, this is a film that massively let down by the poor writing of the characters. The main one was simply horrendous, and the other characters were so forgettable and flat they aren't worth mentioning. Yeah, a very average 5/10 today.

See For Me

In the spirit of Wait Until Dark with Audrey Hepburn or last years Don't Breath 2 we have a thriller about a blind person and a home invasion. This movie went for a technology spin with iPhones and gizmos.

Here we have a very angry teenager recently blind and struggling with her disability. To make her so angry with just about everyone and everything and so resent any help makes her so unlikeable we have little sympathy for her. If she spoke to me like that I would walk away as I have a zero tolerance to being bullied.

The idea that you would employ a blind cat-sitter in an unknown house in the middle of nowhere is stretching credulity.

Come the bad guys it got much better, there remained plots holes the size found in Emmental cheese but for a TV movie it packed a suspenseful punch.

Overall this was a 5 outta 10, meaning it vaguely amused me while I watched it but really it sucked and I hated the female empowerment issues where every man in the movie was portrayed as evil.

Have seen worse.. The lead wasn't likable,believable or where you felt any sympathy for someone blind.

Frankly she was an entitled scammer with attitude,over her circumstances of disability.

It was a very simplistic storyline,which is nothing new or special.

The movie has a short running time that can be a plus or minus,depending on how they want you invested into the characters & so forth.

Although the(See for Me)app concept was interesting,not like that's Innovative technology to make the story greater.

The actors to acting was average,cinematography was ok.. Bottom line the lead needs to stick with voice work,she just isn't a believable actress.

This movie had numerous clichés,plotholes & stereotypes of what a blind person can/cannot do.

Nothing worth a rewatch but if bored & nothing else is on,than it's a time killing popcorn flick.

If you're watching it for Kim Coates.. It's mostly his voice on a phone during some parts,than a little of him as the movie is nearing its running end.

If you've watched hush or panic room you will know what i mean in the title, although this movie isnt as good as those two its actually not that bad.

For me there could have been a bit more tension build up, but still it was enough to keep me interested throughout, the only minus for me is that the main character sophie gets annoying at times when people are trying there best to help her, you'll know what i mean if you watch it.

Ok all in all this is one of those movies you'll only watch once and most likely forget about, but with no regret of watching it.

6/10 from me.
